In short
The Hauraki Big Show outro episode is a comedic “pronunciation guide,” where the hosts riff on words they mispronounce and how to say them correctly. They also do quick banter about football/World Cup stings, networking at TVNZ, and a spooky “pugs downstairs” story.
Guest backgrounds
No guests appear; the episode features the regular hosts (Backbone, Jase, Keezy, and Moe/Moggi) plus mentions of Bree, Clint, Matt Gibb (Squirt TV), and a computer-animated penguin host.
Key claims
“Nuclear” is pronounced “nuclear,” not “nuclear bomb” style; “epitome” is the correct pronunciation; “nearby” is “nearby,” not “nerby.”
Notable examples
“performers,” “specific,” “Chicago,” “lingerie,” “debris,” “epitome,” “nearby/nerby,” and “mayor” (Wayne Brown).

0:23Keyzie:Pretty good. I was telling Keyzie, I'll maybe talk about it on the show. I'm still traumatised by something I saw today, and it freaked me out. And it was just like, oh! You know when you have a bad dream and you wake up and it sticks with you? Yes. This particular incident has stuck with me because it was just, it was too spooky, too scary.
0:43Mike Minogue:He saw Pugs' downstairs. Well, I was thinking diddles. And he didn't see it coming. If you know what I'm saying. If you know what I mean. But it's really, it's left you shaken, hasn't it? Shaken and covered in jizz. I mean I've heard
0:59Keyzie:I've heard the rumours Yeah And the reality is I've never actually seen it In reality And nothing could prepare you Can I say that?
1:09Mike Minogue:Well it doesn't matter how many times Nothing can prepare you Someone says Oh you've got to check this out You've got to go do this You've got to You know But until you see it Yes Until you come face to face With it Seems believing eh Yeah Fellas Unbelievable Have you noticed Mogi's got his business clothes on today? Yes, I have. He's got a new shirt. I'm a businessman. What have you been doing, man? His cool fuck podcast T-shirt. Frank podcast. Oh, Frank. Oh. He's got an extra asterisk in there.
1:37Keyzie:Oh, yeah, I didn't see that, bud. It's a little marketing trick we got there. Nice spotting. Went to the TVNZ, did a thing today for the first game of Foosball.
1:45Mike Minogue:Oh, football, yeah, right. Football at Eden Park there. So I went along to that. Oh, I was invited to that. And it was good. It's good. Good game. Jeez, it was all go, fellas.
1:55Keyzie:Yeah, it was a good game. Well, I actually, I knew that we were playing Iran and I knew it was today sometime. I had no idea when. Yeah. So I came in. It was the last five minutes that I saw. It looked like a goodie.
2:07Mike Minogue:It was a goodie. We need to make a Football World Cup sting. Oh, yeah. Like, what's in the Football World Cup? You know what I mean? Something, yeah. This goes on for a while. It goes on for a month. I imagine football would be what's. No, no, no. Obviously, Jase. Come on, man. But I was thinking we could just voice it on here.
2:25Keyzie:Soccer, soccer, soccer.
2:26Mike Minogue:We'll voice it on here and then Pugs can turn it into a sting. Header, header.
2:30Keyzie:Okay, so that's a great idea, Keezy.
2:32Mike Minogue:That's good, man. I was thinking you could voice it maybe, Jase, because you're very official, you know what I mean?
2:36Keyzie:Yeah. Well, I've got gravitas, I think is what you're trying to say.
2:40Mike Minogue:Totally, that's the word I was trying to think of. Whereas if it's just like, oh, what's on the football with me? Keezy. The unofficial or is it the official? The official FIFA endorsed. Yes. Let's get some lawsuits going around this, mother. Fucker. Hell yeah. And you and me, Casey, we're double denims. A couple of denim cowboys, man. Good stuff. A couple of sickos. You got your Tony jacket on? I put my Tony jacket on and I already had my Tony pants on and I said to my wife this morning, does this look weird? Is this too much Tony? Yeah. And she said, you can't get too much Tony, baby. Well, no, she said you can never have too much Tony.
3:12Mike Minogue:Yes, yes, yes.
3:13Keyzie:Sorry. Is that, I always sort of consider double denim, now that I think about it, it's a weird thing, that like a denim jacket and a denim shirt rather than if you've got... But does that include pants? Pants, yeah. Right, okay.
3:29Mike Minogue:I think it just includes whatever you want it to include. Yeah, two lots of denim. Just double the denim. I used to do triple denim. Did you?
3:35Keyzie:Waist coat. Denim jacket, denim shirt, and denim hat. Denim necker. Actually, I used to do quadruple denim. Denim hat, shirt, jacket, and pants. Actually, I used to do quintuple denim. Quintuple denim. I used to have denim undies. Yeah, right. That doesn't work because it's not the double D, though. Why? Because you've got to go double denim. That's why double denim works, because it's DD. So five Ds doesn't work? Five Ds. Can do. Bet you'd make it work, you sicko.
