What happened during the Christmas and New Year break?
Oh, boys, 2026. G-Lane, how are you, mate?
Oh, good, thanks, Mashi. G'day, Joey. Hey, how was festy season? Did you hit the festivals? Chuck a pinger up your ass?
There were no pingers inserted this summer, nah.
What was the outcome of the Ashes series and its implications?
I had a fairly relaxed break. What about you? You're notorious for shelving things. I mean, you'll do Panadol if you can.
Yeah, it's my preferred way of taking medication, actually. Just even the old vitamins. I wouldn't advise vitamin C, the fizzy ones. I wouldn't advise that.
Why are the Black Caps playing an ODI series in India before the T20 World Cup?
That is the definition of fizzing from the bunghole.
Yeah, they're large as well. They are bigger than your average pill.
But you went out of Rhythm and Alps, didn't you, with the kids?
No, I didn't. No, I stayed well away from that. I was in Queenstown, though, for... for Christmas in the Queenstown area, dipped in, and then did the great southern trek, you know, down the east side of the lake there, and then down through Athol, as we discussed pre-Christmas on the ACC commentary, which I keep getting muddled up, but I think now I'm starting to understand Southland geography a little bit better. But no, I didn't go to one single festival.
What are the latest updates on the NFL Playoffs?
Southland, it's the dark age. Central Otago. They're going to start already. They're going to start already. That's Central Otago.
Oh, sorry. I just meant Southern, to be honest. God, we're already getting into the fucking nitty gritty. Are you sure of this? I just meant Southland as in down South.
What questions did the Agendarati ask this week?
Henry Nipples is scoring runs and Finn's fucking up geography. It's 2022 again. Can we do this year? Can we like, what's the final exam at school for geography? Was it NCEA? Whatever. Can we get you to sit there this year just to see?
Okay, Dipton is a small town located in the southern region of New Zealand. Who are Athol? Oh, no, we're talking about Dipton. I spent Christmas in Southland.
Oh, we're off to a good start.
Oh, what a start. Now I'm actually in a situation where I don't understand what I've got wrong. I actually thought I spent Christmas in Southland.
You did. Yeah, but your road trip down there was... Oh, sorry, fellas.
Right, we're hanging on to every word on the first episode of the year. That's harsh. Should we kick this in the gut? Yeah, shall we wrap this up? This is us for the year. Anyway, what's going on in your world, G-Lane? What's been happening?
I'm over in Japan. I'm over here for the foreseeable, probably to the end of the month, actually. I can't be fucking coming home. Any onsens?
What's going on? I'll be over here. Any onsens?
Any small little downstairs operations? I went to a rugby game, actually. I went to Suntory Sungaliath.
Oh, yeah, talk us through this.
Versus Corbett Steelers. And I went to the same stadium that the All Blacks played Japan pre-World Cup a while ago. Anyway, I was sitting there and I was like, and I was thinking, oh, I wonder how many New Zealand players are playing. And I was like, oh, that's Anton Leonard-Brown. Oh, that's Bryn Gatland. Oh, that's Adi Savia. Oh, that's Brodie Rutella. All playing for Kobe. And I was like, oh, what about the Sangalai? And I was like... Oh, there's Sam Kane who got red carded just after halftime.
Jesus Christ.
Brodie Retallick was a massive pest. God, he's a pest on the field. He was the captain for Colbert and he was constantly in the ref's ear and constantly marking on Sam Kane who got a double yellow and then straight red.
Wait, was this on the 10th? 22 points to 20. Close game.
Good game. Yeah. Nah, Kobe kicked a penalty in the last minute to win it. Oh, unreal. Yeah.
And our interest is obviously going to lie with the stadium atmosphere and what they have to offer over there. I can only imagine there's a lot more going on over there than there was at Eden Park over the break.
Yeah, 18,000 people were there. They're very well behaved. They're very well behaved. Because at some stage, there's a bit of biffo at some stage, and the two teams come together, and there's a bit of argy-bargy. It's mainly the New Zealanders and South Africans going for it. And it's just shirt-pulling at this stage. And the crowd's kind of murmuring, and then they break off and go their separate ways, and everyone goes...
