FULL SHOW: The Next Huge Competition

17:37Great. So I do want to get along and see it. That's all I know. Yeah.

17:40Mike Minogue:Which is, you never go into things these days knowing absolutely nothing. Great cast. So I'm very excited for that. And sorry, just on your Superman, you've just triggered my memory now. I remember that being released in America and there was huge controversy because that's kind of of our time too. That's right. It's about acceptance. Yeah, although it wasn't very, so far it's not as much of our times as I thought it was going to be. Sure. But great cast in that. I think that's everything all at once. Something on those ones, I think that's what it's called. Oh, yeah, it's close enough. One battle after another.

18:08Mike Minogue:Yeah, there you go. That's what Pugs said off air. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. Kings of Leon there on the Radio Hauraki Big Show. Sorry, I... Something has happened that I'm so outraged about that I have a massive bone to pick after five o 'clock. Yeah. What else is going on, fellas? There's heaps coming up after five, man. Some exciting news stories, including one that's got Mike Minogue pretty upset. Yeah, man. Yeah, Nicole Kidman. Fuming. Well, upset or excited? A bit of both, to be honest with you. Yeah. A little bit of both. I mean, that's a – yeah, we'll get into it later, but, man, I thought those two were going to last forever.

18:51Amen. I mean, if they're going to break up, what's the point of us? 100%. You know, even bothering. Yeah. So. Yeah.

18:58Mike Minogue:So that after five and plenty of other stuff too. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Yes indeed, welcome back you massive backbones. Hope you're enjoying this glorious Tuesday afternoon. You're listening to The Big Show brought to you by Reburger. Crave worthy street food freshly made with Reburger. Oh yeah, this is so good because it's Reburger. Yeah! Great stuff. Thank you. Fellas, it was my birthday on Sunday. Oh, happy birthday, man. How old did you turn? 39. And you very generously, fellas, bought me a very thoughtful gift. A box, a box of chippies.

19:48Yes. A full box of chippies. And I thought, how good for the fellas, because it's something I can share with the fellas.

19:56Mike Minogue:Is that why you liked it? Because you wanted to share it with us? Absolutely. Any gift that you can share is a great gift. So I was saying about 20 minutes ago, where's my box of chips gone? And old Pugsan said, oh, might be in the ACC rooms. So he goes and gets my box of chips. There's three packets left. How many were there when you left last night? It was a full box, maybe 20 packets. So it was 12. 12. It starts out full at 12. Right. And now there's three. What animal? How good is it, though, that you got to share it just as you wanted? Yeah, you're right. What sick son of a B would steal Hoity J's personal chip supply?

20:43Mike Minogue:I heard it was ACC head G Lane. Then he just tipped them in the bin. I reckon you go, you know, have a word to him. So say that you want your fair share back. What a piece of work he is, man. I'm disgusted. Same here, Jase, man. Who nicks people's presence like that? Who just goes and helps themselves to chips from a box that was for Horty J? Filthy! The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. Foo Fighters here on the radio. Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday afternoon. The time, 5.13. Guys, I've got some breaking news.

21:29This is Breaking News. Well, it's a bloody sad day with the announcement earlier Tuesday morning, NZ time, that Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman's marriage has reached its conclusion. They've filed for divorce after 19 years of marriage. Oh, no. Of course, they met in 2005 at the G'day USA Gala in Los Angeles.

21:55Mike Minogue:Didn't they get married in 06? Is that right? Well, yeah, I mean, they were married for 19 years. I think your math's about right there, because that's good from you, man. Thank you. Yeah, that's good math. I don't want to get sidetracked, but that's really good math for you, man. Thanks, man. Yeah, thank you. They were 39 years old when they got married. What, between them or each? Wait, what? Apeas. Apeas. Did he know when they got married? Had a couple of, yeah. Yeah. They've had a couple of daughters, obviously. Jase, beautiful kids. Sunday and faith. Oh. And I guess what's gutting about it is, you know, this is something that you thought was going to last forever.

22:41I did. Jase, you and I, we were at the wedding June 25th at Cardinal Cariti Memorial Chapel in Manly, Sydney. Yeah. And it was a beautiful affair. Manly's a beautiful spot. You would have loved it, mate. You were a bit young, though. You'd have been a bit of a toddler back then. Well, I would have been. But we sat there, Jason, and we said, this is going to last forever, didn't we? It did. It did, and I was.

23:03Mike Minogue:Did you say that? Yeah. Yeah, we did. And I remember reminiscing about at the same time, you know, when Nicole and I were together. Yeah. You know what I mean? and it was like I was kind of happy to go, this is right. So Nicole wasn't about me anymore. No, well, that's right. Well, she needed somebody to get over you. I mean, it was a hell of a kerfuffle, Keezy. Keith originally didn't want Hoiti Jisbo at the wedding. Well, that's what I was going to say. Why would Nicole Kidman invite Hoiti J to the wedding if they had dated? But after he met Hoiti J and Hoiti J said, look, water under the bridge.

23:42Is that what you said? Happy to let bygones be, not interested anymore. You actually said to him, look, I wouldn't touch you with yours. Did you say that? Yes, I did.

23:54Mike Minogue:Seems like a pretty gross thing to say. I thought it was a bit off colour. Well, there was a simmering rage inside me. I wasn't being... Why did you go then? Entirely true. Regardless. It was a beautiful affair. Not a dryer in the house. We were crying like babies. And so when something goes, although we thought the same thing when we went to Nicole Kidman's marriage to Tom Cruise. Yeah. Thought that was going to last forever. Yeah, I'd just broken up with her at that point. Wait, so you were dating Nicole Kidman. Yeah. And then she married Tom Cruise. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I hooked up with her.

24:32Mike Minogue:And then Mogi hooked up with her. And then you were dating her again. But that was more of a fling. Right. Mogi had a fling with her. Because really she was, you know, she was still in love with Jace. Her heart was still with Hoity J's. She used you to get to Hoity J? Yeah. And then you were dating again? Well, Mogey was like a rebound. Yeah. Right, and then Keith Urban's like a rebound. Oh, yeah. Massively. But I thought that was going to be forever. Yeah. What? Her and Keith Urban or her and Jace? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Keith Urban. But she got him off the booze, of course, and the cocaine and all that sort of thing.

25:02Mike Minogue:Wait, is this Jace or Keith Urban? Keith Urban. Oh, okay. Yeah. Oh, I'm still going hard.

25:11Mike Minogue:Well, that's no good, guys. I'm sorry to hear that. She been in touch, Chase? Yeah, I was going to say, I knew before the news, she probably woke me at like two in the morning, begging for me to come back. You up? What did you say? Oh. I don't know, Kees, it was two in the morning, man. I wasn't thinking very straight. I said, I'll see how we go, eh, Nick? Did you call her Nick? Yeah, call it Nick. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Fleetwood Mac there on the Radio Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday afternoon. The time is 5.27. My wife just texted me and asked me if Nick's coming for dinner tonight.

25:55Mike Minogue:Nicole Kidman. Yeah. What did you say? Nah, she's too upset. Yeah. Yeah, right, okay. It'll be just awkward anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know what I mean? Hey, Jace, yesterday you asked me a favour. Yes. you asked if you could borrow my water blaster, my pressure washer. And I said yes. Yeah, man, thank you. I appreciate that. Where is it? It's at my house. It's in the garage there, yeah. You're going to bring it on the Friday. Yeah, we'll figure it out. Yeah, yeah, we'll figure it out. I thought you were dropping it off last night after the show. Yeah, yeah. Well, the problem was, Mogi, I got home and I realised that I got married a couple of years ago and turns out everything that's mine is now also my wife's.

26:39Mike Minogue:And so I said, hey. Wives? How many have you got? My wife. I said, hey, babe, singular, Hoity J wants to borrow our pressure washer. She said, what's that? And I said, oh, water blaster. She said, oh, okay, why don't you just call it that? And I said, don't start. Yeah. Yeah. I thought pressure washer sounded weird too, just quietly. I'm with your wife, man. Better not be. And then I said, yeah, sorry, Hoity Jo wants to borrow our water blaster to blast his deck. And she said, oh, I don't know if he is allowed to borrow it. And I was like, why not? Because every time we give him anything or recommend anything or do anything, the reply is always he comes back and says it was shit.

27:27Yeah.

27:28Mike Minogue:You know what I mean? Is that your wife said that? Yeah, she said that. Because you remember four years ago when she made you guys some cake? Four and a half. Four and a half years ago when she made some cake and you said it was dry? She should have that bloody water blaster on it. But when it wasn't dry, that was the problem, was that it was actually delicious and moist. And then even just yesterday, Jay, she took home some of my avocados and what did you say when you came in today? They were the best avocados I've ever had. Creamy. That's not what you said. They lived up to top billing that I gave them yesterday.

27:59What did he say?

27:59Mike Minogue:He said they were pretty bland. Yeah. And I was like, cool, well, you get what you pay for. You know what I mean? Nice comeback. That was snappy from you. Well, if that's the case, I was ripped off. I was pretty chuffed. And then every time I recommend a restaurant, we recommend a restaurant, Jace would go there and go, oh, I'll go there, and then come back, oh, it was okay. Yeah. Or it was shit. Or it was shit. And so now I guess my wife's just really worried that you're going to borrow a water blaster and then you're going to come in on Monday or whatever and just be like, oh, God, I used your water blaster.

28:29Mike Minogue:It was shit. Well let me just say this First and foremost And that would upset her massively Because she loves that water blaster She does The one that she'd never heard of Before you mentioned it No the pressure No No that water blaster She's very familiar with Well let me put your mind at rest She's always blasted Let me put your mind at rest Because I'm going to have it For at least a couple of months What? So I won't be turning up on Monday Going You water blaster's shit So I wouldn't worry about it Are you just doing your one deck? No, I'm doing the whole deck, but I'm going to do it multiple times.

29:04I'm going to give it a thorough thrashing.

29:07Mike Minogue:You're going to blast it three times. All right, okay. Your deck. My deck, yeah.

29:14Mike Minogue:I just don't want you to have it now because it sounds gross. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Kesey. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Radio Head there on the Radio Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday afternoon. The time is 5.39. And I've got a bone to pick. I got a bone to pick. Oh. Have you got a bone to pick? There's more Mogi has, actually, to be honest with you. Oh, thanks, man. Thanks for picking my bone for me. But we've both got a bone to pick, haven't we, Horty Jizz? We do. I can't imagine what about. Well, earlier on today, we got a message that came through on the WhatsApp.

29:54We've got a group WhatsApp, don't we, fellas? and it's full of interesting commentary that we sort of pass around to each other.

30:02Mike Minogue:The group's called Hauraki Big Show. Yes. And it's the three of us and Pugs is in there as well and the profile picture is a packet of cheese balls. Can I just, just as a very quick sideline, because I'm with you on the bone to pick. Please. I'd like to publish that chat as a book. Yeah, I think that's a great idea. Because it would be quite a career ender. Let's see that after we die. there's a message here from Christopher Key that's you Keezy at 108 it says the following can't remember if you wanted to come or not Jase but a few of us from Horeki are going to that DiCaprio movie at 7.30 tonight and having dinner beforehand Mogi you're welcome to join too now what's wrong with that it sounds to me like you guys have done a big who's going to that Keezy who's going to that Me, Prebs Preblo Escobar Prebs will be there Big Dilly's going to be there Oh yeah Pug San obviously Yeah Isaac as well Oh wow The Harki crew You know the crew Holy Holy hell It's a real party Well not really I mean it's just a whole lot of dudes And we're having dinner at 7.30 The movie's at 8.30 Oh Yeah yeah yeah So Wow Yeah yeah Holy hecka I was going to say It's pretty tight there Keezy Yeah but like You can't come to the movie You have to come to the dinner as well Yeah right I get it Yeah, yeah, yeah.

31:22Because it's at one o 'clock on sort of the day of, it makes it really hard for me to be able to make it. And it sort of feels like you've left it really late so that Hoity Jizzbot and I have got no chance of coming along.

31:34Mike Minogue:Oh, man, that's not at all what I was, you know. And what I've got a bone to pick about the whole thing is, first, I've heard of it.

31:45Mike Minogue:Because I could have sworn I told you last week. I could have sworn you were there while we were planning it. And I could have sworn you said, yeah, I'll be keen. I think it's a classic case of old Keezy trying to slip one past the keeper there. Yeah. He's always doing that, eh, old Keezy? It feels like we're being sort of elbowed out. Ostracised. Ostracised. Thank you. You're right. Okay. I'm sorry to have ostracised you guys. Thank you. How about this? I'll message the fellas. I'll say it's not happening tonight. We'll do it this time next week. Yes. That's a week's notice, all right? Would you guys be keen?

32:22Yeah, absolutely. Definitely, man. At the moment, absolutely, yep. Bloody lock it in, Eddie.

32:30Mike Minogue:Where are we going for tea? Well, we'll decide. Hang on, what do you mean at the moment? Definitely. What do you mean? Because I don't want you bailing. Well, look, can we get busy, Keezy? You've got priorities. You've got kids and, you know, all sorts of stuff going on, man. Yeah, exactly. You can't just drop everything and go along to your stupid little movie. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki. Soundgarden there on the Radio Hauraki. Big show this Tuesday evening. The time, 5.52. Coming up after 6 o 'clock, by the way, we're going to be doing What's on the Dinner with me, Keezy.

33:03Mike Minogue:So if you'd like to win yourself a$50 re-burger voucher, give us a text on 3483. Tell us what you are having for dinner. 3483. Can't wait, man. That's been going for about four years now, and people can't get enough. Oh, no, you're going out for dinner, aren't you, with your date? Hey, now listen, I've got a question for you, fellas. Actually, it's more a question for our tradie listeners out there, but I want to get your opinion on it as well. If I contact, say, a builder or something who I get a contact of and I ask them if they want to do a few cashy jobs around that place, is that dodgy and a tradie's offended by that?

33:41Because I don't know about you guys, it feels when I'm offering someone a few cashy jobs jobs, that there's something a bit underhand about it, that it's all a bit sort of hush hush, wink wink, I'll give you a few cashies, we'll make it a cashie, no one needs to know about this sort of thing. So something about the fact that you're saying no one needs to know.

34:02Mike Minogue:It's our little secret. It's our secret. It's our secret. We're not going to pay any tax on this. That makes you feel like maybe, just maybe, it's a bit underhand. Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean, it's not on you to pay the tax. Obviously, it's on the person carrying out the work to declare their income. Because I was doing this today, and I got given this number, and I don't know the fella. Oh, yeah. And I was writing, I've got a couple of cashies for you, mate, if you want. And then I thought, actually, would someone be offended by that? Because it is, I suppose, technically, as you point out, fellas, breaking the law.

34:34Tax evasion, yeah. Tax evasion. I wonder if tradies get those sort of calls and go, oh, dodgy bastard. Well, I mean, I think they'd accept that people are going to try it on. Right. But it sort of feels like it's over, like the good times are over. I've got all sorts of shocking mates that are tradies. Yeah. And they refuse to do cashies. Is that true? Yeah, that's true. Because I'm thinking about... And they're shocking, bastard. Because I'm thinking about dudes genuinely, and they've got a sort of day job. Oh, yeah. You know what I mean? So they work on a building site or something like that.

35:07and then in the weekends they might pop over to Hoity J's or after their work and just earn a few extra quid for the family. Yeah. You know what I mean? And it's just crisp$20 or$50 notes. Dish, dish, dish, dish, dish. Why cash though, Jase?

35:22Mike Minogue:Because see, this is the issue is you're offering cash because you want it to be cheap, right? Not at all. Why are you suggesting cashy then? That's true. Because you should just be, would you like to come over and do some work at my place and I will pay you fairly. I'll certainly pay them fairly, but I just wondered if it appeals more if I'm saying, I'll give you cash, and that way it's just like bonus money that they can have that can supplement their legal income. Oh, with a bit of illegal income. With a bit of illegal income. And I just, I mean, how do tradies feel about that? I mean, if someone said to me, and I was a tradie, Hoity J and I doing a job, I've got a couple of jobs if you're keen, a couple of cashies, man.

36:05I'd just pay you in cash. I'd be like, shit, yeah. No, you'd be like. I mean, initially I would be like that. Then I'd be like, hang on. He's going to hand me or she cold hard cash. I'm in. Count me in. I reckon if I was, I think when you're younger, you'd probably be keen. When you're older, I think they couldn't be bothered with a hassle. Right. Because at least if they're doing the work, and this is my rate, here it is. We start talking about cashies, and all of a sudden you're offering them$20 an hour. Do you know what I mean? And it's like, again, we get a little bit. Well, I would let them name the rate.

36:38Yeah, right. Hourly rate, you tell me and I'll pay you it.

36:41Mike Minogue:Well, I mean, a really good way to find tradies who are keen to do cashies. Yes, KD. Is you drive around at night and just wave cash out the window and just sort of approach different people and just say, hey, are you keen to do a cashie? Yeah. That's certainly worked for me in the past. They sort of hang around the side of motorways and all sorts. Okay. Oh, good. It's good to know. Make a pretty good job of it as well. Want a cashy? Okay, good. Hey, don't forget, 3483. Text through what you're having for dinner, and we'll get into that after 6 o 'clock, and you could win a Reburger voucher. So good.

37:20Mike Minogue:The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike, and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki. Welcome back, you backbones, and can I just say we really appreciate you listening to our show, Taking the time out to listen to the fellas. Incidentally, the big show is brought to you by Reburger. That's right. Handcrafted burgers, loaded fries and gourmet eats. That will change the game. Yum. Hey, where are you fellas thinking of eating tonight? For your date night, the movie night. We're going to go somewhere near the cinema. I'm a big fan of Malaysian. Oh. Like a laksa. Yeah, I love a laksa. Or a beef rendang.

37:58Do you like a laksa with a big floating egg in it? Halved? Yep. Yep. Beautiful. I had a rendang this evening, Kizzie. That's what I was eating earlier this evening, yeah. How good's a rendang? A bloody good rendang.

38:09Mike Minogue:If you haven't had a rendang, you've got to get yourself along to Reburger and get a rendang. Yeah. They don't have them, but go to a Malaysian joint and get one. Oh, they love it. I'm having a spicy chorizo pasta tonight. Just re-what's for dinner. Oh, yeah. So you've had dinner already, Moggy? The wife will have something there for me tonight. Okay. Yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep. Yep, we'll see what that's looking like. But I'm trying to be good and go to the gym every day. It's been good. Been on the wagon for a couple of weeks there, not eating like an animal. I just come in here and sort of eat half a bag of chips.

38:40Yeah, you two-fisted.

38:42Mike Minogue:Yeah. So you're on the wagon now? I'm currently on the wagon. Until Fiji? Until Fiji. Yeah, right. And then off the wagon? And then I'll be off the wagon. But then on the wagon again after Fiji maybe? No, I think I'll be all summer I'll be off the wagon. Yeah, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just stay on the wagon all summer. No, I'm going to get off it. You're on it. Am I? You're on the wagon. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So the wagon is, you want to know where that comes from, Kesey, man? I actually do. It's from back in the day. They used to have water wagons that would go around, carts, wagons. They would go around and they would spray water to keep the dust down on all the roads.

39:16Right. So then when somebody was off the booze, more than likely they'd be on the water, which means they'd be on the water wagon. They'd say, oh, I'm on the water wagon, as a turn of phrase. and then that got shortened up to wagon because there was eventually no water wagons. People didn't know what you were talking about. And now it's just I'm on the wagon. But people are always confused. Is it on the wagon or off the wagon? Yeah, I don't know. It's on the wagon because I'm drinking water.

39:37Mike Minogue:Because I thought it was like a booze bus wagon. And so I'm off the wagon. I don't want to be in the booze bus wagon. So you're on the wagon. I'm on the wagon drinking water. Hey, keep those texts coming through, by the way. What's on the dinner with me, Keezy? In the meantime, here's a bit of Nirvana. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki.

It's a segment where you text in what you're having for dinner on 3483.

It's Radcliffe. Oh, Rad, is it? It's actually Day-Lewis. It is actually Daniel Day-Lewis. It actually is. He's texted through saying, G'day, guys. Daniel Day-Lewis here. Nana is bringing Chinese takeaways. Oh, yum. You like me a Chinese takeaway? What's your favorite Chinese, Keezy? If you go to a Chinese restaurant, what are you ordering? Out of your classic smorgasbord options, black bean beef or a lemon chicken. And they always do a really good salt and pepper squid or something.

41:01Mike Minogue:They don't always. But I love a chicken chow mein. Yeah, I don't mind a chicken chow mein. Chicken chow mein's good. You like fried rice, don't you? Chicken fried rice. I like fried rice. I'm quite partial to the old sweet and sour pork. Cashew chicken. Cashew chicken. Chicken feet.

Bacon and cheese toasties tonight. Bacon and cheese toasties. I need some tomato in there. I'm going to need something else.

41:41Mike Minogue:I'd think ham and a toasty. Yeah, I'd go ham and cheese, sure. If you had crispy bacon and then you put it in, you couldn't just put the bacon in there uncooked. Yes. Yeah, that would not be right. That might work, but I'd still need a squirt of some sort of sauce. Yes. I don't like crispy bacon. I like slightly soft. Nah. I hate crunching through. It's gross. Yeah, not crunchy, but slightly off-crunchy, you know? Yeah. Just like a little bit crunchy, but then the bulk of it is soft. I don't like the – I can't do a chewy rind. No. Foul. No. Foul. That's like shoulder bacon though, right? People boil their bloody bacon in there.

42:17What? Now I'm doing the air fryer for the bacon. Are you? It's good. Sounds like it's been a good addition to your kitchen, Jace. It has been pretty good. Yeah, nice.

42:25Mike Minogue:Yeah. That's great, man. Thanks, fellas. Here's a text that's come through from Michelle and Sasha. Oh, my God. Sasha Baron Cohen. I didn't know that. Pfeiffer?

So, g'day, guys. Sausages and mash. My wife. Wow, wow, we were. Very nice. I don't mind that. Sausage and mash. Like that. But you know what? And then my wife, she'll always separately in that sort of scenario, steam some broccoli or blanch some broccoli, and she'll go, do you want some?

43:08And I always say that it's like, you know I hate broccoli. Yeah, why do you even talk to me? Why do you keep asking me that?

43:15Mike Minogue:Because she wants you to eat broccoli because it's good for you and she cares about you. It's good eating. It's good eating, Jase. And then you just look at her in the face and you go. There's one last one. I don't get this, but this one comes through from Paddy. Paddy Gower. Maguire. Paddy Maguire. Who's that? I don't know. G'day, fellas. I don't know. I don't get this. I'm having Keezy's favorite, rigatoni with a few burnt meat patties. I don't get that. What's that? Old Tony. Old Tony pepperoni. Well, you guys can tell me what a rigatoni is. A rigatoni is a pasta. Yes. Yeah. You've been to Europe.

43:54You should know that, Kesey. Actually, fun fact, Jase.

One of the teams last year was Team Media, which was Mark Richardson, Jeremy Wells, and Di Henwood. Oh, yeah. And basically, they're playing Ambrose. Ryan Fox is playing off the stick. I'm with you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But because we had him in last week, Moggy, while you were on your Auckland slash Hamilton holiday, and he was saying that it doesn't matter if you've won a couple of PGAs. playing three guys who are playing Ambrose is really, really hard.

45:18That's interesting, isn't it? Yeah.

45:19Mike Minogue:So I think this year it's now Ryan Fox and Friend. Yes. He's going to have someone join him. It's brought to you by Manuka Fuel. Spoiler alert, it's Tiger Woods. Well, that's a huge embargo on that mode. Tiger Woods. Are you sure about that? Because we've heard nothing. Yeah. Yeah. Why are you saying yeah so quietly? Pretty good. It's either him or his son. Oh. Yeah. Well, either way, I mean, that's a huge spoiler. Oh, yeah. They'll probably be really pissed off that you've told everyone. No, no, no. They'll forget. They won't even be listening. Foxy Jr.? Yes. No, Tiger Woods' son. Oh, Tiger Woods' son.

45:58No, Grant Fox's son. Oh. Yeah.

46:02Mike Minogue:Ryan. Yeah. Hey, well, it's going to be broadcast live and free on TVNZ1 and TVNZ+. Tickets go on sale Wednesday the 29th of October. If you want to be there, we're going to be there. I've got a question. Hello. I remember you yesterday saying that there's a chance that maybe the big show would be broadcasting live from out there. Is that true? Because I've heard nothing about that. That is true. It's just murmurs at this stage. Oh, who's doing the murmuring? Oh, you know old Captain Murmur out there. Kate was like, oh, would you guys be keen? I was like, probably. It's a really cool environment.

46:35Mike Minogue:So that's likely going to be happening. What time does it start? I'm just worried about the clash. No, I think last year it was 7 p.m. Yes, but that's perfect. And it was a big show straight into, you know. Boom. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we'll sort of get the ratings up for them and then boom. Then boom. Hand it over. Yeah, boom. Wow, how many Tiger Woods is going to be? That's amazing. I know. Don't tell anyone. No, I won't. It's the 12th of December at Royal Auckland and Grange Golf Club. Once again, tickets are on sale the 29th of October. Make sure you get along to this. It is the next big thing in sports entertainment.

47:08Mike Minogue:It rules. Boom. Oh, yeah. Yeah, doosh, doosh, doosh. This rules as well, Jase. Green Day! Woo! Get her in, yeah! The Hauraki Big Show with Jase, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Pink Floyd there on the Radio Hauraki Big Show this Tuesday evening. Hey, fellas, have you ever been to Rakaia? Yes. It's in Canterbury. Yeah. What's Rakaia famous for, Jase? Salmon. Correct. Mogi? Salmon. Yeah, correct. Yes. And Rekia has a giant salmon on a stick. Oh, my God. Is it okay? It's made of fiberglass, and it's 12 meters tall. Sorry. Yeah, it's the big salmon. Oh, is that what they call it?

47:51Mike Minogue:They call it the Go to Rekia, See the Big Salmon. That's a good name, Kesey. Yeah. I mean, I want to take credit for it, Mogi, but I'll be honest, I didn't name it that. But the big salmon's been there for 30-odd years, and the Ashburton District Council, they want to spend$300 ,000 just tidying it up a bit. They call you the big salmon when you were in that jacket, are you there? Your pink faded jacket. Keezy. Yeah, they call me the big salmon. I guess that's what made me take a liking to this particular news story. In all seriousness, I... It's not pink, it's faded red. Massively struggle. you know, new buildings or sort of when they're doing stuff like this, the cost of stuff.

48:40Oh, my God. It's like, are you shitting me? Yeah. It doesn't take you$300 ,000 to do that.

48:46Mike Minogue:Right. Okay. Well, do you want me to sort of break down? Thank you. What it's doing? Okay. So faded paint and algae growth. So we'll have to clean all that off. So you take your pressure cooker. We can do those. You take that. Yes. Your water blaster. Water blaster. Water blaster. Get a blast. I'm in charge of blasting the salmon. Yes. Oh, water blast or the algae off. Yeah. The paint's fading. There's cracking as well in certain areas of the carbon, not carbon fibre, fiberglass salmon. Yes. So who wants to be in charge of patching the fiberglass? Does it give you an idea of the cost of any of this stuff?

49:20Have they broken down the quote?

49:22Mike Minogue:Not 100%. All I know is that the actual work all done on site is going to cost $215 ,000 New Zealand dollars. Yeah. And then there's the cost of craning, transportation, sandblasting, cutting and welding, et cetera, of the support pole. That's going to cost around$82 ,000, bringing the total up to just shy of$300 ,000. Well, first and foremost, why are you even moving it? Leave it on the stick and do the job there. You just saved yourself$80 ,000. But have you ever tried to repair fibreglass on a 12-metre high salmon in the open, man? Yes, I have. Really? So I'll take that on. You've done that before.

49:59It's pretty specific. It's easy. Squirt, a super glue, Bob's your uncle. Might even do a bit of a weld and a melt. Because to me what it sounds like is all we're really dealing with is a water blast.

50:08Mike Minogue:A water blast, patching the fiberglass. Half a day. And a repaint. For the water blast, exactly. Yeah. So how much does paint cost on a 12 metre? That's what, 10 tins of paint? Yeah. Give it a couple of coats. Yes. Splash it out. We can take my jacket in and colour match it. A hundred percent. I reckon we can do it for 230. 230K? 230K. All right, cool. Someone needs to go inside it and cut out all the mouldy insulation stuff. You just leave it. Don't worry. Why do you need an insulated salmon? Exactly. We're not living in it. It needs to be warm, Moji. No, it doesn't. Should I say that we'll do it?

50:42We'll do it, but we're not doing that. That's stupid.

50:44Mike Minogue:The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at 4 on Radio Hauraki.

50:58Well, there you go, you mad bastards. That's the big show, Nod and Duster this Tuesday. Hey, fellas, how good going home in daylight. Oh, it's nice, isn't it? It is really nice, you know, and you walk into the car and the birds are tweeting in the trees there, Mogi. People are on the corner bars having beers. He's outside. It's bloody great stuff. It's really good, man. I'll tell you what I'm lucky is I put up those curtains over the weekend. Yes. Or the other day. Yeah, over the weekend. and this morning I pulled my daughter's curtain open and the whole thing just came off. It's about 12 feet in the air.

51:37So you know how the end should be screwed on to secure it, you know? To stop it. It had no screw on it. Right, so I just came right off there. But none of them did, so it was just tightly fixed and I opened it and the whole thing came off. All of the track thingies came off, flying behind her bed, hidden by all the paraphernalia and garbage she's got there. So I just left that on the bed. Hopefully the missus has sorted it out. Yeah, good stuff, man. That's 12 feet in the air. It's high, man. Yeah, right. It's not good. What you could do is get your wife on your shoulders and then your daughter on top of your wife's shoulders and they can put it back up.

52:11That sounds like the smart one. We could use the ladder, but that sounds like more of a family. Yeah, it's more of a family exercise.

52:16Mike Minogue:I reckon the human, the family sort of, what is it? Human pyramid option. Yeah. That's a way better option. Yeah, well, it's a bonding experience, isn't it? And so is Mogi Minogi the one fixing it? Well, that's not going to work. I think she knows how to stand up, so she should probably go on the bottom. Yeah, yeah, because you want to – your wife should be. And then my wife needs to hand me the tools and stuff. Right, so it goes – Mogi Minogi's at the bottom, and then your wife is on her shoulders. Yeah. And then you're on the top, and your wife's handing tools to you. Yes. Yeah, that'll work.

52:47Beautiful. Hey, what's the outro clip today, Keezy?

52:51Mike Minogue:It's called New Segment. All right, Tom Petty, it's time for you to walk the plank. Yeah, and then you do the whole audio thing of him walking the plank. Cluck, cluck, cluck, and then I'm free. Free falling. Yeah, that's right, off the plank. That's good stuff, Gizzy. And then he gets eaten by a shark. There's a new segment that we're going to have on the radio show where it's how we sort of work out what our playlist is. Yes. We decide that we don't like a band, and then we just make them walk the plank, you know, because we've got the tiri, the boat. The Hodaaki Boat, yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then that band, If It Walks the Plank, can't be played on air for a decade.

53:29Mike Minogue:Yeah. Sounds great to me. Yeah. Really good. Can you lock that in, Pugson? Thanks, man. Cheers, man. Hey, Keezy, have a great date night with the fellas tonight. Thank you. Oh, yeah. And I'm sure you'll give us a huge review tomorrow of the movie. Yeah, a real spoiler-laced one. Yeah, three hours long. Yeah. Hey, listen, make sure you check out the Instagram account. Make sure you check out the podcast. Till tomorrow. See you later.
