FULL SHOW: Woke Boy & The Truth

17:58Jason Hoyte:Especially you, given that you've won four years out of five. They're not going to take issue with the fact you've had a head start in the year 2026. Should we get into them now? Would you like to go first or shall I? Yeah, mate. I'm just going with something a little bit different. Based on the fact that 50 Cent has made this documentary about P Diddy, it's got me back into his playlist. Huge tune.

18:19Keyzie:Cool.

18:20Jason Hoyte:Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool, shorty. It's shiver thick. We're going to party like it's shiver thick. Hey, what have you got, Pugs, man? I was worried about that F-bomb there for a sec. That is a tune for 50 Cent. What is it called? It's called Inda Club. Oh, sorry. How could I forget? Inda Club. Inda Club. Now, I've gone for something a little more rock-focused with a band that I've kind of rediscovered this year, and I have really, really appreciated their earlier albums. So this is Linkin Park. Oh, yeah.

19:07Jason Hoyte:That has hit the floor of the album Meteora, Linkin Park. Get it in you. But you decide, New Zealand. Give us a buzz on 0800 Hauraki and Big Delhi in there or get a few callers on the line to do some votes. And we'll get to that next. But in the meantime, here's the White Stripes on the Hauraki Big Show. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki.

19:31It's the Horeki Big Show's Friday Throbber.

19:36Jason Hoyte:Douche, douche. Damn it. That was your last chance too. Yeah. We're not doing it again. It is the Friday Throbber on the Horeki Big Show. Mike Minow took out the 2025 one for the year this morning when we covered breakfast. But we thought, why the hell not just kick off the 26 one now? And if Keezy and Jace don't want to be here for it and get their chance to get ahead, that's on them. That's a cost. That's a cost for them. So too bad one of us is going to take the lead going into the break. How good? How good is that? Now, Moggy, you went for a very topical artist. I did. I've pretty since done a documentary on P.

20:11Diddy. So I've got his playlist going again, not P. Diddy's. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, shawty. It's shiver, yeah. We're going to party like it's shiver. Yeah, we're going to sip a party like it's shiver.

20:26Jason Hoyte:Is this the one where he's hanging upside down in the music video? He's hanging upside down into clubs. It's like the idea being that he was built in the lab by Dre and M. So he is the perfect rapper. That's the storyline behind that. I believe that, man. And pretty true because he sold over$10 million. That album went diamond. Does he talk about that in the doco, like himself? He's not in it at all. He's not in it. Okay, no, no, no. That's right. I've watched a 50 Cent documentary, though. Didn't he get shot like nine times or something like that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He loves it. Now in a complete opposite fashion to that I've gone for a band that I've got a new appreciation for in 25 Linkin Park

21:11Jason Hoyte:That's of Meteora And it's a tune It is a tune Not one of the best songs on that album though So I'm surprised that you've gone with it I think it's a sleeper hit If I'm honest That comes on the old gym playlist and I'm throwing dumbbells through the roof. Should we go to the phones? Lizzie, are you there? I am. Hi, Lizzie. How are you? Good, good. You want to vote on the throbber, mate? Who are you going for? I'm going to have to go for 50 cents. Yeah, good on you, mate. Good on you, Lizzie. Yeah, that's a good vote. Thanks, mate. Thank you, mate. Appreciate the call. It's good. Let's move it along.

21:47I hope we get another female because females like to dance whereas dudes like to scream to Linkin Park. So if it's a dude-woman ratio, then I like your chances. Well, fingers crossed, Moggy. Hamish, how are you? G'day, fellas. Good. How you going? You guys must be bloody buggered by now. Oh, yeah, mate. But we're coping. You know, what do you do for a crust, brother? Oh, mate, I'm just an office worker. You know, I just work in a bit of admin. Yeah, you're a backbone, man. Yeah, a massive backbone.

22:15Jason Hoyte:Backbone of this nation right now. Hamish, just quickly, are you a guy or a girl? Because it kind of depends for Moggy's vote. No, I'm a guy the last time I... Oh, okay, right, okay. No, that's all good. Yeah, no, no, it doesn't matter. No. It doesn't matter at all. You're talking of woke pugs. Now, Hamish, who are you voting for? Honestly, you... Mogi, you tempted me. Yeah, come on, man. I love a bit of fitty scent, but I've got to go with pugs on this one. Yeah, good on you, man. That'll do, Hamish. Thank you very much, mate. Have a wonderful Christmas break. Okay, we've got one more. We've got one more here.

22:52Jason Hoyte:Hello, caller. Who are we speaking to? Steve. Steve, you mad dog. What do you do for it, Chris, mate? Mate, I'm a software engineer. Are you really? Oh, Steve. What a backbone. What sort of stuff are you making? Sort of missile defence systems and stuff. Yeah, a lot of that kind of stuff. And then just some other bits and pieces that you probably won't understand, Mogi. Yeah, right. Okay, good on you. You sound like a man with fantastic taste. You're probably roughly my age. you remember the golden age of hip-hop, brother. Who are you going for? Okay, it doesn't need the spiel. Well, yeah, look, I'm a massive fan of Pug-san, but unfortunately I am going to have to betray him and go the way of Mogi.

23:33But in the club, I think, might be just what we need to finish off the year.

23:37Jason Hoyte:Good on you, Steve, you mad dog. Hey, Steve, nice to know you're a fan, brother. Cheers, man. Thanks for the call, mate. Have a great Christmas. Oh, look at that. You've got one point ahead. I'm leading, brother. I'll bleed again into 2026. Keezy and Jisbold will be stoked to hear that. All right, here you go. Here's Mogi's throbber kicking off the 2026 Friday throbbers on the Hauraki Big Show, 50 cents. The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. Rage Against the Machine on the Hauraki Big Show. Jeez, it's like you had another throbber in there, Mogi, already. People are starting to get it, man.

24:10They're starting to get it. What, the people at Hauraki? Everyone at Hauraki is starting to get it. Yeah, it's preps. Preps are starting to get it. Nice. I had a good one yesterday. I normally have a car park here at work, but yesterday I didn't have a car park. Must be nice. So I had to park on the street. And I went out and I forgot about it. I was meant to go out and chuck some more coins in, but I forgot. And I thought I am 100 % going to have a parking ticket. But normally the way that it works now is they send – they don't leave one under your window wiper. They will send it to your house.

24:41Yes. So you've got no memory of – it was a month ago.

24:46Jason Hoyte:100%. We had a guy here who would just park out on the street and thought, oh, my gosh, they're obviously not coming down here. And then he ended up with about 10 tickets in the mail at once. That's right, because they've got the new cars that drive around with all the cameras on them, which to me is like cheating. Do you know what I mean? It is like cheating. If you're going to catch me, you need to put some poor bastard out there in the driving rain walking around the block and walking around the next block and then walking around the last block because I think they have to check it and you've got the six minutes.

25:14Jason Hoyte:It's a real rush. It's a real rush when you see the parking warden coming along down the street. It's like a cat and mouse game and you're giving the cat a sniper rifle. That's right. I mean, they've got the advantage anyway because you're normally at work or you're otherwise occupied. So they've got the upper hand straight away. But to me, you need to be caught by a human. It's sort of like maybe it was the 1400s or the 1500s where there was a huge war. I'm pretty sure it was the Saxons. It was the English against, let's say it was the French. Yeah. The dirty frogs, as you were calling them off air.

25:45pugs which is shocking especially given how woke i am racism from what you said i'm woke except when it comes to those goddamn frogs uh but they used they used um longbows so they used arches right so that was when that got invented you think that these things have been around forever but it was regarded as cowardly and ungentlemanly to use longbows because you weren't looking your enemy in the eye you weren't engaging in combat yeah it was long distance so all of these things as they went on were and then guns were even worse that was cowardly so it was meant to be swords and yes things where it was man-to-man combat and this man-to-man combat completely

26:25Jason Hoyte:comparable to that of a parker and a parking that's right so this is this is the lot those new cars are the long bow of parking because it's cheating and it's bullshit but anyway so I've got I have been getting – I've got a business. I park close to the business. Yeah. Dude, I have been getting so many fines because they took the parking fines from$40 up to$70. So they practically doubled it. They did, yeah. Without any notice at all. And I was like, well, it's actually worth me risking a$40 parking fine because they very rarely come around. Yeah. So that worked. But then once it went up to$70, it's like, ah, it ain't worth it anymore.

27:01I've probably paid a couple of grand in parking fines this year. A couple of grand? It feels like they're constantly coming. and then you get the Baycorp ones and you're like, I'm paid all of these. And then they send you a Baycorp one for$20. That's rude. Anyway, so I've got nothing nice to say about Auckland Transport as a rule. But yesterday there was a ticket sitting underneath my window wiper and I opened it up. You know what it was? I had no registration. Okay. You know how much no registration costs? No.

27:30Jason Hoyte:What is it,$200 or something? $200. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It said on there, this is a warning. They gave you a warning. And the guy had written on there, he said, your red rose expired. He didn't give me a fine. Isn't that amazing? My question is, that is amazing, is it at the warden's discretion? Well, that's what it's looking like, pugs. Now, if I was running these traffic wardens and I was running traffic cops, I would have a day where your whole force goes out, cops continue to pull people over for speeding, Yes, yeah. They continue to give out tickets, but they are just all warnings. All warnings.

28:09Okay. So there's some goodwill from the public because now you've got all of the public is actually getting let off fines. Yes. And they're like, actually, these cops, these scumbag wardens, they're not so bad after all. Old Minister of Transport, Mogi. Old Minister of Mogi. I'd vote for that. The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki.

28:30Jason Hoyte:Oh, a bit of Pearl Jam there with the longest song title of all time, elderly woman behind the counter in a small town. It's very specific. Mike Minogue, we've got another best bit from the Hauraki Big Show, just to coast out to the end of the year. I've been picking them all from the year 2022 just because that was actually when I started the 14th of November, 2022. So these are some of my earliest memories of when I started working at the Hauraki Big Show. And this was when you had a real strange encounter on a gym trip that you had on the way before you came into the show.

29:03Keyzie:As we were saying just previously, we were talking about shredding for summer in our outro there. You still gymming it? Yeah, still gymming it. It's been hard, actually, because it's difficult to get a routine, but I've sort of sussed it out. Now I get up at, because I wake up at four, so I just go down at four in the morning. Good call, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I'm home by, when I get home, you know, everyone's still asleep, and it gives me a chance to sort of make everybody's lunch for them. Yeah. Breakfast, clean the house. you know do all the washing and everything yeah yeah I'm the same except I just don't go to the gym yeah yeah I went to the gym once at that time just because I couldn't sleep as well and there's literally no one there it was like the lights were off you feel like you're breaking in all this yeah and that's generally what it is which is awesome you get in there you've got the whole place to yourself but I went there today and they had they had sort of road cones in that outside which I thought was a bit weird and then I went inside and there was a film crew in there there was only about maybe five or six just shooting some content on the bench press mostly.

30:03Right. And a couple of other spots. But yeah, it was a bit of a shock because you don't expect to see... Like a workout video. I should... I should... They should tell you that that's going to be happening. Oh, yeah, for sure. I mean, if you're at the head, they're going to have a phone crew down there. Totally. Yeah. So, no, it was... I think it was a... What do you call them? You know, Keezy. Those ones you like. Oh, like action movie or? I don't think it's your favourite genre. Oh, adult film. Filth, yeah.

30:33Keyzie:Oh, adult film movie. Yeah, really? Oh, right, okay. On the bench press? Yeah, it was on the bench press and then there was a bit of squatting going on as well. Good Lord. I'm not entirely sure what the storyline was. I sort of got in, when I came in, it was sort of right in the guts of it. What? And, yeah, so pretty, bit of an eye-opener. my bulges were really burgeoning out with it. You don't like to look, you know, because you like to stay in your own way. I like to just concentrate on what I'm doing. Oh, yeah, yeah. I was going to say, did you stand by and watch, or did you sort of do your stuff, or did you bolt?

31:13I acted like I wasn't looking. And there was just a few things that were annoying me about it around the filmmaking side of things. Oh, yeah, you're quite picky like that. You and I spent a bit of time on film sets to sort of know how it should be. and in the end I got a role. Wow. What, from giving them feedback and critiquing it? Well, yeah, and then they sort of, you know, they were like, oh, hang on a minute, this guy seems to know what he's talking about. That's what they look for. Yeah, and so, yeah, so I've stepped in and I don't know when it's coming out. Was it like a minor role or a lead?

31:46Oh, a lead role. Lead role. Oh, okay. And even with? Well, it was about, I think they were saying it was sort of about a puppet, a wooden puppet that comes to life. Right, okay. Oh, like Pinocchio. Pinobio, they called it. Oh, Pinobio. Initially, and now they've changed it to Pinogio. Right. Oh, the scene where Pinocchio goes to the gym and works out. Well, they've obviously had some creative license with it. Oh, yeah.

32:12Keyzie:And even with what's going on with you there, they still ran with it. Oh, yeah. I mean, obviously, I'm not going to be involved in any of the actual, you know, they'd use a stunt member for that. A stunt member? Yeah, yeah, because as you say, it's a bit deformed there, and I'm not interested in, you know, they wanted the performance level to be increased so that, you know, people sort of believed the story a bit more. So they changed it to Pinoggio. No, Minoggio. Minoggio. I'm going to keep an eye out for that, mate. Oh, yeah, I'll flick it through to you when I get it. Oh, great.

32:46Jason Hoyte:Have they done any more porn shoots at your gym since then, man? No, not many. I think they got shut down after that. It was a health and safety violation. Yeah, it's funny, isn't it, the things that sort of come up? I'd forgotten all about that. Yeah? It's quite good to have this as sort of a written or a verbal history of the things that have happened in my life because I forget all of this. Yeah, and if you've forgotten about any of it as well, listening, you can actually check out the entire Big Show archive via our podcast. Wherever you get yours, recommend the iHeartRadio app. Just go on there, search Hauraki Big Show.

33:20Jason Hoyte:And we'll also look after you over the holiday break, but I'll talk a bit about that later on in the show. Bit of R.E.M. Get it in ya. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. It's R.E.M. on The Hauraki Big Show. You've got Pugs, Moggy and old Dilly because it's time for... It's the Hauraki Big Show Big Bet with the D.A.B. How are you going, Dilly? You all right, mate? I'm good, mate. How are you getting on, fellas? Big day for you two. Huge day, mate. Just about all over. And looking forward to being out of here, to be honest. Free of this place. No, no, no. I mean, look, I love it.

33:54It's just been a long year and it's been a long day.

33:57Jason Hoyte:In a similar vein, I'm really excited too, but more so excited for the next hour of radio that we've got to do, just because of all the content and stuff that we get to include in there, Dilly. Yeah, normally I'd finish after this, but I'm just going to hang around and listen to you guys. Yeah, good on you, man. 100%, brother. That sounds great. Now, we've got our resident guy, Dilly. Resident guy from now. It's coming and talk about the TAB Big Bet. Now, we've got Alex on the line. Alex, are you there, mate? G'day. How's it going, fellas? Good, thanks, mate. What do you do for a crust? Oh, I am an engineer.

34:29Jason Hoyte:Oh, jeez. Backbone. What a backbone. Didn't sound 100 % sure of that. You made that up on the spot. Good on you, mate. Dilly, do you want to run them through what's on the table here? Absolutely. So, Alex, I've got two bets for you, mate. They're both relating to the boxing tomorrow between Jake Paul and Anthony Joshua. So your first fight, sorry, your first bet is for the fight to go the distance, paying$3.75. Or your second option is Anthony Joshua to win by decision or technical decision, paying$5.50. So which would you like, mate? Well, I was originally going for Anthony to give him the left-right goodnight, but I don't think it's going to go the distance.

35:11I think it'll go to decision. Go to decision, technical decision? Beautiful, mate. We'll put a$100 bonus bet on that one for you. Too easy. Yeah, good.

35:18Jason Hoyte:Beautiful. Lovely. Thank you, Alex. You stay on the line, mate. And once Dilly, our resident guy, gets out of Studio A back into Studio B, he'll sort you out. Thanks. And that's all thanks to the TAB R18. Be it responsibly. Have a good break, Dilly. Love you. You too, fellas. See you later, brother. Here's friends, Vernon. Hey. The Hauraki Big Show. Weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. Hauraki Big Show. You're here with Woke Boy and the Truth on Radio Horaki. What about Pugs and Mogey, man? Should we stick with that? Yeah, it's not bad, is it? It kind of sums it up pretty well. Now, our boat comp where you get to name our Horaki boat and get the chance to win its worth 75K is going to be running for pretty much all summer.

36:02Jason Hoyte:We want to get your name suggestions in. My favourite is still Hoardy Jizz Boat. I just think that's maybe the most clever thing I've ever heard. and you could win yourself that Finchaser 535 Centre Console with a what? It's a mouthful. It's a huge boat. What do you want me to say? Yeah, it's a Finchaser 535 Centre Console with a Mercury 60ELPT four-stroke CT outboard. I like that you went to just say it's a massive boat and then you proceeded to say the full name correctly. Well, no, I'm saying it is a mouthful trying to get that out and there'll be people out there that will hear those syllables, those words come into their ear and know exactly what it is I wouldn't have a clue what any of that is No, neither would I.

36:42Jason Hoyte:All I know is that it's worth 75k, that's really standing out to me I think it's all you need to know. And it could be yours with that name that you love plastered on the side of it. It's all thanks to our mates at Fin Chaser Boats, designed by fishermen for fishermen. And plenty coming up after six as well. Mogi, you're going to have some holiday chat, man. Am I? Yeah, it's going to be very holidays focused. You're going to talk about running into a brick wall with all your work and stuff. You know how work tends to get harder as you get to the end of the year. Yeah, I look forward to it. Also, I'm going to run you through our entire plan for how you can stay fed with the Hauraki Big Show over the break and, of course, another best bit.

37:18The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki.

37:23Jason Hoyte:That's right. It is the Big Show. Turn into the medium show you're here with Pugsan and old Mogi taking you to the home stretch for the holidays And, of course, the big show is brought to you by Reburger, crave-worthy street food freshly made with Reburger. Ah, that's really quite yummy. It is really quite yummy, mate. And here we are. We're in the final hour of the show. We've had a bloody big day today, haven't we? You're bloody right. We're the, look, I don't want to say we're the heroes of the day, but it sort of feels like that. We've top and tailed the day. We are the sandwich and the meat.

38:00Oh. And here we are. Hopefully for everybody out there, if this is your last day of work, you're going to have an absolute ripper this evening. Can I put it to you that way? Get a few beers in. Me and Pugs are.

38:14Jason Hoyte:Oh, absolutely. Aren't we babes? Oh, 100%. We've both got plans tonight. And who knows, maybe they'll merge later, Mogey. They may just. They may just. So I'm expecting a 3 a.m. text from you, Pugs, and we'll hook into each other. I mean, hook up then. Oh, we've got to hook up then. Now, we've got a fair bit on for the last run of the show. we've got another great best bit and I pull this one out probably once every two best of shows that we do just because it's kind of a fan favourite and so it's nice to end the year on a high note and also we're going to take you through what the plan is for the big show to keep the people fed over the holidays as well amongst other great content The temper trap Tune Absolutely

39:00Weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

39:02Jason Hoyte:That's the strokes on Radio Hauraki. It's the Hauraki Big Show. You're here with Pugsan and old Mogi, the last two men standing in what appears to be the entire not only Hauraki office but the NZME office as well. Now, Mogi, what's the guts for you after today? Well, I'm meant to obviously finish the show here. I've been run ragged, man. They say like a blue-ass fly, right? You're busier than a blue-ass fly. I don't know why they say that. I'd like to know. I'm going to look it up. I imagine it's maggot related. But I've got a business, so I've been super, super busy with that. And so what that means is you've just sort of run out of runway to get all the things done.

39:45So you have a list, and you do the list, and you do the list, but the list continues to move as you don't do the things, right? Because you've got more weeks and days in front of you. But Christmas, the Christmas break, is a brick wall. And so as you push those things, they just end up piling up against this brick wall. Yes. And so you get busier and busier and busier trying to get rid of all of the things that you've got to do. So now you're working more hours in the day. So I have been absolutely fried. Our plan was that we'd finish the show today at Sparrow's Fart tomorrow morning, 6am. Yeah.

40:20We would hit the road and we'd go to Hamilton, so not too far, but every bastard's going to be on the road. You're right. And then we'd stay there for a night. The next day, go to Taupo and see some mates there. and then the next day go to Wellington.

40:32Jason Hoyte:Right, and at which point at any of those places are you going to be able to get on your laptop and do some work? Well, I'll be doing my work at all of those places, but more to the point, I just said to the wife, I said, nah, we're going to take a couple of days off. So I'm going to finish today and we're going to take the weekend off and then we can start moving on Monday. That's valid. I reckon because I am just buggered and I just want to sit down on the goddamn couch and do nothing with just my laptop on my lap and just get some work done. Do you reckon you have the same attitude after a few beers or will it give you a bit of fire?

41:03Well, the thing about me is because I go through these periods where I don't drink and I'll do sort of three months here, three months here, six months a year, whatever it might be. And that's really good for me, but my wife hates it because if I'm not drinking, then I've got to be busy doing something. Right. So I have to do something. I just won't sit down and relax. I have to do something. but if I'm drinking, that's what I'm doing. Right. So that is the task in front of me. We're drinking. Responsibly, 100%. I can do that. So I put 100 % into everything I do?

41:38Jason Hoyte:Yep. So there has been conversations where it's like, well, you want to be drinking, so here we are. That's the spirit, man. Yeah, man. Hey, hang around. In a little bit, we're going to take you through the plan for the big show over the break in terms of what you'll be listening to, what you'll be hearing and seeing. So hang around. Here's some ads. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Kesey. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki. Green day there on The Hauraki Tiny Show with Pug-san and Old Mogey as we get to these final few moments of the big show for 2025. Mike, I thought it'd be quite helpful if we took the people through what the plan is and what's happening to the big show over the next couple of weeks.

42:23Jason Hoyte:Oh, people will be freaking out. So not knowing that kills them. Yeah, exactly. Who knows? Is Jase coming back next year? As far as we know. As far as we know. Now I'm just bringing this in as a little side piece to this. So essentially, if you want to listen to the big show or see any of the big show, here's how you're going to do it. You're going to go on iHeartRadio because every show we've ever done is on there and the ones that I'm about to talk about will be on there. You're going to go to Horaki Big Show on Insta and give that a follow because we'll still be putting out great content over the break.

42:52Jason Hoyte:Now, every Monday over the next few weeks until we get back, you're going to have a Best of 2025 podcast. Now, in previous years, I've done it so that it's all kind of been categorized. It'll be like the love special. Sure. Or like the romance or the animal wildlife special or something like that. This time, it's just all mixed bags. You're not going to know what you're going to get every time, and that's the fun of it. Every Tuesday, you're going to have a Best of 2025 social video. I've put together some of our biggest moments chronologically from over the years. well, as chronologically as possible from over the year.

43:23Jason Hoyte:So that'll be on at Horeki Big Show and also on YouTube and also on Facebook as well, I would say. TikTok, all that jazz. Now on Wednesday, completely new podcasts. So these are breaks that have not been heard before. They've aired on radio and I've saved them off. I've kind of done a little bang there. And so it's just those. And every Wednesday over the break, you can hear one of those. Thursday, new video that nobody's seen. Struess. And of course, the next couple of Thursdays, I think it's Christmas one Thursday, and then the next one is New Year's. Right. We'll have a new outro podcast on those days too.

44:00Jason Hoyte:Jeez, man. We're going to be coming in for it. It's going to be great. And then Fridays, again, a best of 25 podcast, and then maybe a few photo bits here and there. And I've spoken to Big Dilly, and he's going to be bringing out some of our best moments in full from throughout the year and just reposting them. Right. For more engagement. Man, I mean, you're going to absolutely get your fill of the big show. Can I also suggest that you just sort of detox from us? Just take a break. I mean, I know you've put a lot of work in here, Pugsarm, but to me it just sort of feels like, you know, just put the phone down, go and play with the family, have a few beers, get into the darts, and we'll see you in 2026.

44:34Jason Hoyte:Can I just say that feels really good because you know what you were talking about before, about work piling up against a wall? That is my work piling up against a wall. So you know what? Just don't even bother. Have a break. The Hauraki Big Show. weekdays from four on Radio Hauraki. It's the Black Crows on Hauraki. You're here with Pugs and Mogi, the last two men standing from the big show. You going all right, Mogi? Yeah, man, I'm having an absolute ball. It's a shame, isn't it? It's almost over. It's a shame. Can I also just say, it's a shame we've discovered this lightning in a bottle that is Mogi and Pugs so late in the year.

45:04Absolutely, mate, but it bodes well for next year because, I mean, as far as I know, Jason's coming back. Yeah. As far as I know, Keezy is coming back, but we just don't, we don't. Oh, Keezy as well, as far as I know. As far as I know. Why, what have you heard?

45:16Jason Hoyte:Huh? Now, I've got one more best bit to spin because we just need to get to the end of the road, don't we? And this is one that I like to pull out as many of these. I like to pull this one out at as many of these best-off shows as I can. And this is the big show Curry Night from 2022. This is the first time all four of us got together and we went out for curry. I think it was in Parnell there in Tāmakemikota. Yes. And let's just say things went slightly awry for old Keezy.

45:46Keyzie:Keezy. He was four sheets to the wind even by then, Minogue. He had only just started. Yeah. You must have been tucking into them at work. I don't know. But, yeah, so we sort of managed to get through the dinner there. There was one point there we had to sort of grab Keezy by the shoulders because, as you say, he knocked over his beer and broke that wine glass. but you forgot the massive F-bomb I dropped which cleared the restaurant totally I was just trying to sort of do you thanks mate and of course he's seen the beer on the table and he's wanted to get he doesn't want to waste it so he's gone in for a big table suck yeah yeah that's right you know we had to try and keep him away because the glass was still in it so yeah a bit hairy and then of course curries it turns out they don't really agree with you eh the spicy ones especially the riggedy They're really hot ones, Keezy, do they?

46:41Keyzie:Because you were sweating bullets. I was fine. No, I was totally sweet. I don't know what you're talking about. And then we have a scenario where Keezy's like, fellas, fellas, where's the guy's in box? Is that how I was talking? He's got some bugs here. And we were like, yes, Keezy, just, you know, down there, mate. And so I sort of escorted him to the toilet because he was weaving all over the place. Left him to it. Bad move, Hoity J, Minogi. Oh, why? Why was it a bad move? Because I'll tell you why. 20 minutes later, the owner of the restaurant, who you knew very well, Mike. I can't remember her name.

47:16What's the name again? Well, I don't want to give it away on air. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't want to point to the restaurant.

47:21Keyzie:Came up to us looking very embarrassed. Why was she so embarrassed? I mean, because basically someone had laid one out in the urinal.

47:39Had they? I wonder who that was, man, because that's not okay. That's not okay at all. And I don't remember seeing that. Yeah. And unfortunately, your swipe card for NZME for the studios here was sticking out of it like a wafer out of an ice cream sundae.

47:59Keyzie:But I'm wearing it now, my swipe card. We made them clean it up. We got them to clean it up, but that was really awkward. Boy, oh boy, I tell you. Surely that's where the night ended, right? We just left after that and nothing else happened. Well, you know, there was, we'll spare you the rest of the details. Suffice to say, look. It was an eventful night. It was an eventful night. I took Kesey home. He did a bit of a power bomb on the dashboard. Did I? And I took him into his bed and, you know, took him home and laid him on the old bed there. A bit of a mess as well in that regard. But I won't go into that and just left him to it.

48:36Keyzie:But hey, a fun night. Fun night had by all in depth. It's certainly something that we want to keep up as a tradition. Yeah, I might leave you guys to it next time. It's no surprises really that that was pretty much the last time. We've probably done three or four in the four and a half year run of the big show.

48:56Jason Hoyte:It sort of happens the more we forget about what happened that first time. Then we sort of go, oh, maybe this time we'll get it. Yeah, exactly right. You know what I mean? And then there's another few months. That's right, yeah. Yeah, we really should do that more often. I would like that. The Hauraki Big Show with Jace, Mike and Keezy. Tune in weekdays at four on Radio Hauraki.

49:23Jason Hoyte:There you have it. That's the Hauraki Big Show done for 2025. Absolutely flew by, didn't it, mate? It's been a hell of a year. We've had some great times. we've lost multiple sporting challenges I don't see that changing next year but I'd like to have more challenges but ones that we could potentially win I just want to say we doesn't really apply to either you or me, we're the only two people that didn't cock up our challenges. That's right but you've got to be in to lose don't you? As much as you've got to be in to win I mean we did manage to run our legs of the 4x100 metre race that we had with breakfast without straining or tearing any muscles.

50:06Yes, staying in front too. So that's a feather in our cap. But certainly I've had a lot of fun this year. It's been great. But I am ready. I am ready to walk off into the sunset, mate. I am ready for the summer holiday.

50:18Jason Hoyte:Yeah, that's fair, man. I'll still be doing a little bit in terms of uploading stuff and posting stuff, but I'm bloody excited to take a break, head home, heading back home to Welly on Tuesday, I believe. But a fair bit of social events this weekend, Again, just to kind of tie a few bows and stuff, say goodbye, have a good break, and see you in the new year. I think tomorrow, oh, tonight, well, we've both got drinks tonight. We do. And then tomorrow I've got another flat party, I think, and then sending my lady back home to Hawke's Bay on Sunday. It's all going on, mate. Have a great break. Thank you.

50:50Love for the family. Have a ripper. You've earned it. Thanks, mate. Likewise. And we'll see you next year, eh?

50:55Jason Hoyte:Yeah, love you lots, man. Good on you, back, mate. Love you, brother. And love you too, listening. Take it easy out there. Be safe. Drive safe. Bye. Thank you.
