In short
The hosts chat about studio life and mishaps, then pivot to a brief discussion of workplace/public safety after a scare involving loud bangs near the lifts; they also joke about bike helmets and end with plans to “wrap the week” and a gag about not turning up.
Guests
No guests appear; it’s an in-studio roundtable with hosts including Moggy, Keezy, and Pugs (and mentions of Jeremy, Jase, and “Horty J” as coworkers).
Key claims
Moggy had a moment of genuine terror when he heard bangs and debated whether to alert others; they conclude it’s “every man for himself” in an emergency. Helmet pricing is criticized as potentially excessive.
Notable examples
A leaky hacky sack gift from Bex; Moggy’s daughter’s last day of school and studio desk/monitor upgrades; a producer’s dream about a gunman at a previous workplace; helmet costs ($240–$250) and bike-rain/rust jokes.

Where the hell are you? Pugs hasn't bothered with my headphones today. He can't be bothered at. Nah, I'm talent now, so I don't really. Old half-ass pugs, they call them. I don't really do that stuff anymore, man. Old piece of shit pugs, they call them. That was actually the old me. So I'm changes now? You're new, dude Yeah, yeah How good How good I don't know how Jerry So I'm wearing Jerry's earphone Oh, there we go That's why he has them up so loud Why is that?
0:40You're right, Keezy? Because you can't hear shit in these
0:42Mike Minogue:Right, okay Because you put our ones on I can hear you louder in the room Than I can in the cans Are you kidding? No! Far out What have you been doing, Moggy? Dialing it in, man My daughter has her last day of school today And she was sick That's why she's not here Oh, really? Yep, so she was sick. But went into the office, got a new screen put in. A new monitor, is that for you? Or is that like on a wall? On a wall. Big touchscreen monitor thingy. So I was in there for that. And then I put a new desk in the podcast studio. And then, yeah, it was just in there until one or two, you know? Fuck yeah, that rules, man.
1:22Mike Minogue:That was fucking sick. That actually rules. Bro, moving some desks around. Oh, yeah. A bit of a rearrange, you know what I mean? Yeah, I've been looking forward to having a look at that. Finging it up. Yeah, it was good. That fucking rules, man. I wasn't really looking forward to not being here and seeing you counts for a while, I'll tell you that. Do you know what? Do you know what? No, seriously, 100%. Did you know today I got up and I was like, I have two jobs today. One job is to broadcast to the nation. The other job is to buy my mother-in-law an oven mitt. Well, a very small percentage of the nation.
1:52Mike Minogue:The nation of Norfolk Island. Yeah, that'll do. And the other job was to get my mother-in-law an oven mitt for Christmas. She just wants the one? Well, it would be the joint one. Oh, yeah. It's like a long ribbon. Oh, like there's two joint together. And you hang it over the oven handle. And I got as far as waking up, having a shower, getting changed, and then Googling the farmers that I was going to go to. Oh, farmers. And then got distracted, started watching something, started chatting with my wife, went out into the garden, started watering the lawn, started doing a few things like that, and then got called in for an impromptu work lunch.
2:31Mike Minogue:Oh, really? Did you hit up Mogi?
2:34Jason Hoyte:They did ask me if Mogi would be there, and I said probably not. It's hard for me to be there if I haven't been invited.
2:42Mike Minogue:Out of curiosity, Mogi, if Pugsun had messaged you at 11.30 saying there's a work lunch at 12, you wouldn't have been able to come? The answer's no, because I had my sick daughter with me. And I knew that as well. No, no, no, that's why I didn't. was because of your sick daughter. If not, would you have come? It would have been, no, well, I had guys at the office. Yeah, well, traditionally. I'm not too sure why he left. Yeah, no, it makes perfect sense. It's supposed to be saying no. Traditionally, you and Jase, you know, it's always like, nah. We don't bother you. Yeah. And so I didn't even get the oven mitt done.
3:11Jason Hoyte:No. Oh, jeez. So I'm fucked off about that. Hopefully you can do the other thing.
3:16Mike Minogue:Broadcast of the nation? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ah, fuck. If not, you'll do it. Look at this hacking stack that Jeremy has been given. It was in this pouch. Ah, that'll be Bex, I'd say. Well, no, it's a whole bunch of gifts that... Yeah. And I'm assuming his hat. Oh, this is a part of the secret Santa
3:32Jason Hoyte:that we're going to talk about on the show. We are going to get into that on the show. The hats were brought in by Mania for the breakfast team. Yes. This hacky sack is terrible. All the beans fall out of it. Yeah, that's why she gave it to him.
3:43Mike Minogue:Oh, really?
3:43Jason Hoyte:Yeah, because it was leakin' beans. Oh, leakin' beans, baby. Bex?
3:46Mike Minogue:Yeah. So is that the one she bought the other day when we were in Dunedin? That is one of them. She bought two. And it's already leakin' beans. I know, it was licking beans out the gate from when she got back. To be fair, it is one of the worst hacky sacks I've seen. Fuck, man.
3:57Jason Hoyte:Have you noticed there's a hacky sack sack? No, I've never seen a hacky sack sack. I've never seen a hacky sack sack before. And it does resemble a woolen ball bag, yeah. Ball bag, yeah. Which is epic. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
4:07Mike Minogue:Freaking epic sauce. That's so good, man. Yeah, man. Good stuff. Do you guys genuinely yesterday, right, and this is me being serious, Mogey, for a second. Serious, Mogey. Mogey. I'm listening, man. This is really serious. But you're like my missus. Because if I'm on my phone and I'm doing something, she won't talk to me. She's like, you need to listen to me. I get that. I can listen to this. No, because I have to repeat myself all the time. So I 100 % get it.
4:32Jason Hoyte:If my partner goes on her phone, I will not. Oh, really? No. That's rude, man. No, because I know that she won't catch it. Right. And I've just learnt that. Right. And so it's fine if you want to go on your phone. That's cool. But I'll catch you when you're not. I'm not going to talk to you. I'm not going to talk to you. The Hauraki Big Show Weekdays from 4 On Radio Hauraki The Hauraki Big Show Podcast So yesterday
4:59Mike Minogue:When I was in the kitchen I was just grabbing a glass of water Midway through our show I heard two really loud bangs Coming from that little lobby Out there with the lifts up Oh yeah Right And I was like Fuck someone's dropped something On the ground And then I was just like Based on what happened yesterday In Australia I was like Genuinely For a split second I was like what if someone's coming in here? Yeah, right. And at that moment, I actually had a genuine shiver through my spine and stuff. I was like, oh my God, what if it is happening? Just for like a split second. And then I had a decision to make, which was, do I come in the studio and let you guys know or do I just go into the makeup room and hide and cower?
5:37Jason Hoyte:Yeah.
5:37Mike Minogue:Right. And you chose neither of those because you didn't tell us. No, because I walked past and checked the door in the makeup room and it was unlocked. Right. And then so in my head, I was like, so that is the case. I will check that and then come and be like, guys, come with me, come with me, just fucking come right now. And then we'll go in there. But then is that how you're supposed to do it? Or am I supposed to alert everyone? What were you supposed to do in that? I think it's every man for himself.
5:58Jason Hoyte:I think you're not going to be able to call the authorities or help other people unless you're in a spot to do that. Scary train of thought. It was, man. It'll look like cowardice. Yeah. Certainly that's the way it would be approached on the show.
6:12Mike Minogue:Oh, so you think we'd come back on air and then do a bit of a riff on Casey being cowardice? but it was the first time I've ever had a shiver of genuine terror go through me for a split second, something that I knew wasn't happening, but I was just like holy fuck!
6:26Jason Hoyte:I think we get slightly desensitised to I mean like obviously we're in New Zealand we are in a very privileged position but I think there is a risk that we often forget about, like you remember when we've had people outside the windows protesting and stuff, you know what I mean and like not necessarily that they were dangerous at that time, but there's a potential that there could have been because we are exposed to the public you know yeah and what
6:49Mike Minogue:if we're just sitting here they just light old mogey up and we're just watching jesus it's a risk we're taking you know what are you gonna do for the big show well what are you gonna do yeah start wearing bulletproof vests to work that's a good idea fitty fitty styles you know what i mean love fitty yeah man um yeah no there's no point worrying about that shit it's funny because at our old workplace our producer had a dream that um a gunman went through Sky where I used to work. And his dream was like, it was like a classic dream where it was kind of murky and you can sort of remember it. But he said the most vivid part was that he came into the Crowd Goes Wild office where we worked and Andrew Mulligan stood up and went like, wait, no, no, no.
7:31Mike Minogue:And then the gunman lit Andrew Mulligan up. And he said it was like slow motion from Tropic Thunder when Ben still was coming. And he was just like, fuck. And then he went into work the next day and told Mulls and we thought it was so funny. He's like, everything else was murky except for it was just the most like. You've got to use that time to get away. Yeah, 100%. If I saw you getting mowed down like that, Keezy, it would be so clear to me that it was all over. Yeah, Muggie's on his pushy. Where is your pushy? Well, it's pissing down with the rain, so it's at home. Have you been riding it? Yeah, man.
8:03Going good? I'm loving it. Bicycle mowed. It's great. I'd still have to get a helmet, though, which is a bit of a pain in the ass. Okay, what's that noise? There was a helmet that was$240. It was more than...
8:13Jason Hoyte:Have you got an error message on your computer, Muggy? Sorry. Nope. Because it's not mine. It's not mine either. Mine's on mute. Mine is very loud.
8:21Mike Minogue:It could be Horty J's computer because he never switches it on. Maybe it's a thing. Possibly. The jizz bot. Sorry. Anyway, helmet chat. The helmet, yeah. So there was a helmet when I went and got my bike serviced and it was worth almost double the cost of the bike. Yeah, right. What? I'm not getting that. To protect your knowledge. I'm not getting that, man. Fuck that.
8:40Jason Hoyte:You want your helmet to look skucks as well? And often the safer they are, the less scum they are. These ones weren't bad. Yeah. Yeah, but then there was another one. I was like, oh, that's all right. Have you got anything in it? Like, have you got it in black? It's like, nah, they only come in white. It's like, yeah, that's how they get you. It's like, you don't want to look like a fuck wearing a white helmet, so you pay$250. Old white helmet. For the scum ones. Yeah, but I do have to get one. Although I think I left my bike in the rain today. Damn it.
9:05Mike Minogue:Mogi, it's an old bike, man. You can't do that. You've got to look after it, Keezy. It's going to rust out, brother. It's like me and my truckie, man. You don't drive it in the rain. I can handle it, but. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just avoid it where possible. Yeah, yeah. Hey, fellas, can we wrap it up this week? What are the chances? Can we just end this? Just wrap the whole week up. Because the boss is going away, isn't he? He's away on Thursday. From Thursday morning, yeah. Feels like we should just pack it up. What do we do? Just play the chillies? Do we just say, here's the chillies, and then just play an entire album?
9:34Mike Minogue:What would happen if we just didn't turn up? I don't know. Probably get sacked. Oh, yeah, true. There'll be that. Well, yeah, 100%. Yeah, there'll be that. Like, it's pretty cut and dry. Yeah. Would that not be a warning? I reckon you should risk it. Guys, you've got to come to work. Why don't we do some wacky radio content where Moggy tomorrow, we all agree, as a bit of a radio gag that you just don't turn up. Yeah, sure. And we just see what happens. Okay, cool. You should do that on Friday when we're going to do breakfast, man.
10:01Jason Hoyte:Yeah, I might actually. And then it'll just be pugs. You mean the pug show? Yeah. Yeah. The Hodaki Pug Show. Pugs on breakfast and drives. Fuck yeah, you should do days as well, man. Could be Cain. I'll tell a big not to come in.
10:13Mike Minogue:Listen to The Big Show, 4 to 7 weekdays, Radio Hodaki, except for on Friday when it's The Pug Show. Thanks for listening.
