Hello, my beautiful beanies, and welcome to the bean for Wednesday. First with yesterday's news, I am Glen Hatt and we are looking back at Tuesday. Look out, public service. The Nichola Willis is coming after you with a scythe or a sickle or a machete or something. Stay sharp night, but good news for out of India. I think we've got an FDA happening, is it? Maybe headchhiking and Fijos will finish up the podcast, but let's begin it by dredging up COVID stuff, reopening that old wound because a few borrows money, you really need to pay it back.

It didn't work when it came to allowing troublesome tenants to stay on in caying order accommodation. I can't think of a single sector where it actually worked. Just on that. Anyone who did take out a business loan and doesn't pay it back. I remember my accountant saying to me it was a good eighteen months ago. She had businesses who were taking the loan and saying, oh, we're not going to pay it back. Why should we? There is absolutely no need to. If they're stupid enough to give us the money, we're not going to pay it back. Surely there is a moral authority that if you can, you should, and if you can and you won't, then you must never ever talk about beneficiaries bludging off the system ever again. Same with student loan defaulters. You have no moral high ground at all. We can't move on. It'd be wonderful to be able to move on, but we can't move on when we are paying and paying and paying for stupid, ill considered, poorly advised decisions, and we're all going to be paying for a very very long time to come.

Greatest international disaster in living memory, basically certainly of a generation, there's probably is going to be a little bit of ongoing fall out from that, isn't there? But I think we've all decided that everybody did a terrible job of it, and we're not going to do anything like that ever again.

Another pandemic, it'll be completely different next time and everything will be lovely sort of out straight away now so as a result if we think to be as a result of what happened back in twenty twenty twenty one, and part of what happened, apparently is the public service between every bananas and blew out. I personally can't quite see the correlation, but Sarah apparently and Nikola Willis is going to sort it.

The bills keep piling up. Defense. Remember Judith Collins came on this program. She wants to double the spending to ten billion dollars over time. Some of that will be capex, but still kitching. The survivors of abuse in state care must be compensated. It's the right thing to do, but again kitching. Willis also mentions health kitching, education, kitchen police kitching. So you add up all the kitchens, you get sick of saying it. You add your debt servicing, and you're starting to think about running out of the restaurant and leaving the tab to someone else, or maybe some sneaky new tax or a right Well. Willis says no to that too. Nothing made you coming, except for the charities. But that won't light the world on fire, throwing the risk to global growth and therefore our export earnings. From Trump's trade war, and then that could hit your tax take, and add it all together, you're left with an unmistakable course of action.

Cuts.

Cuts.

Willis has been busy beavering away on a plan for months across all of government to do just this, to make cuts, to cut programs that were nice ideas but don't work. She's looked at cutting entire ministries and agencies, but says it costs more to delete them in the short term than you'll say, So none of that this time round. But if you're working on a project right now, if you're working on a program, a piece of work that has no tangible benefit to a decent chunk of US taxpayers, then brace yourself. You're on the chopping block, and Willis is coming your way the aprons on. And it's not a filleting knife in her hand, it's a meat cleaner.

Ah filliping knife, meat cleaver. When I was listening off all the other things that he could have been cutting with less those two out which worked out well. Really, Otherwise Ryan had to be repeating what I said. Is ridiculous because I said it after he said it. I'd be repeating what he said in advance. See how We've been time in space with this podcast, isn't it amazing us talk in more positive economic news. It looks like we're well on the way to an FBA with India. Which are they now? The biggest country in the world.

They're up there space space is a no brainer. India's already aiming for the Moon, They've already been there. We have space, we have great tech. It is another sector that we can benefit from India's expertise to help our productivity. Our i is atrocious and with all eyes on Chinese expansion in the Indo Pacific region, there are many reasons for a closer relationship. That's why Chris Luck and us talking right now at a defense seminar in India. And if tensions were China increase, our manufacturers will need India's cheap labor and on China, we need to have India on our side the same way we walk the tight rope with America on Pacific security and we still have a relationship with China, So why will we While we will always consider dairy as a cornerstone to our competitiveness in global trade, we have often spoken of the need to have some diversification in our export markets, and this deal offers us a chance to grow and become broader base and with a bit of luck. In fact, I'm sure of it, dare we will join the ride as years go by.

So, just going back to the space thing, are we exporting space to India or are they exporting it to us? So I don't quite understand how that part works that it brings into it. They did, so I think people sort of forget that they were the first country to land on the south pole of the Moon, as opposed to that that one the other day where we got live footage of the private company that was trying to land something on the south pole and then they all looked a bit plumb because it didn't work. I mean, I found it amusing. They didn't seem to be that amused. Have you ever picked up a hitchhoker? I don't know why they were talking about this. Yesterday afternoon on thenoon show.

Stop, the van went into the shop and came out and there was a there was a girl standing by the van. She was quite like a not a big she was a big girl, like a like a rugby player size big girl with a big knee bandage on and limping around and she said, oh, I'm trying to get to the bus station in Croydon. Can you give me a list? And I said, well come any policy was no lifts, you know, you know, no one in, no one in the vehicles. And I said, oh, really sorry, I can't. It was starting to spit rain a bit, and she was sort of I felt a bit sorry for I said, come on, it's only four or five k down the road jumping, so she jumped in, took her down in a chat and she was going to her brother's twenty first birthday party apparently. So I dropped it off at Crowdon Bus station and as I pulled away, I was sort of a few hundred meters down the road and in those days we had the old CB radios and it was the you know, the head office ringing meat off, calling me and the boss said, Matt, are you alone? And I thought he is hidden camera. Yeah, there's no cameras in the and I said, well, what's up and he said well are you alone? And I said yeah, and he said okay, where did you drop her? I was like, what the hell? So I said, well, Crowdon Croydon Central Bus Station and he said, okay, stay on, stay on channel, and I could hear him talking on the phone to someone else, and then he came back and he said, right, just return to base. So I thought, oh god, I'm in trouble now. So I drove back to base. It's just probably an hour. It's a place called Crawley and got back to base and they're a big group of people who worked for the cheered when I drove up, and I thought what I went into went into his office and he said, mate, is said, the reason the reason I was calling and I was really concerned is because as the girl was getting in your van, two nurses from the local asylum for want of a better word, were running down the road trying to catch her because she's a dangerous person.

The big I am doing new draw a story out and they a lot of details we didn't really ask for in that story. Ah I I think I've mentioned before I used to bust full time. That was kind of my first job when I was school. And there was another guy in Hamilton who used to bask as well, and he would get a bit angsy if I was in his spot before he ended up or what he deemed to be his spot. He wasn't quite as committed as I was. I used to do it four days, five days a week, four hours a day, about eleven in thirty through the two thirty three. He was there some days, some days he wasn't. Anyway, he asked me for a ride one day. This is after him. You're getting really agro at me to stealing his spot. Another day I gave it to her, gave him a right. You know, baskets, you got to stick.

I've always been of the peace of mind that the real New Zealand Easter egg is the humble fijoa, shaped like an egg, arrives as time of the year. So my question to you, right, and I'm genuinely curious about the answer to this one. Fijoas probably New Zealand's adopted national fruit, and it seems to be the fruit in New Zealand that drives the most passion with Facebook pages dedicated to fijoas and WhatsApp groups and Instagram accounts and TikTok account It's all about the Fijar. People love them, and people love them in such a way that they think that there's special love for the Fijara is unique, that they can love it in a way that no one else can love it. It's quite it's like the love of a child. So we are in fijo a season. But I have one question for you about the fijoas. Because it's a fruit, it's extremely polarizing and I've never quite worked out why. So the question I want to ask you because I love them, I et a bucket of them. They let another bucket. They have a third bucket. But the question I have for you fijo A people or people have used other art Fijoa people. Is you people that hate them?

Why is that?

Why is that?

My theory is they're one of those. There are a few things that smell a lot stronger than they taste, and as soon as you put fijar anywhere near anything else, that's all you can smell or taste is fijar from that point. So it's a bit overwhelming. What is it?

One of those Southeast Asian fruits, you know, the one that tastes like vomit. I mean smells like vomit, but it actually tastes really sweet. That's another one, and you know people will love or hate that for obvious reasons. Yeah, funny old things, aren't they, see Joe. Anyway, we don't have to worry about it in our house. We're going an allowed to buy them, can't buy them from the supermarket. Not when they're falling off the trees. Is if they're not falling off our trees. Because we only got one fejar off three trees. I don't know what's going on there.
