What is the first podcast episode of 'Great Routes of NZ' about?
Hey, big news, Minaya. Oh, yes. I don't know if you've heard. We've done the first podcast formerly known as Dudes Rooting. Oh, really? Yeah.
Why did Ardie Savea almost quit the All Blacks?
We managed to do, probably in this current climate, it's probably not great to promote roadies just for the sake of roadies. Oh, right, yeah. It's a luxury. Yeah, it is a luxury. But we did Rainbow's End. To the Outback Inn in Hamilton.
Oh, of course.
What a classic New Zealand roadie. So we did that route.
You don't want to do it the other way.
What did Melie Kerr achieve against South Africa?
That's coming out tomorrow. Oh, great. So just in time for those people who are on their Easter trips, if you kick it off as you pass the big drop.
The Tower of Terror.
The Tower of Terror at Rainbow's End. And you can go all the way into Hood Street in Hamilton. Oh, well, that's great because I know so many New Zealand families are doing that tour. classic Kiwi pilgrimage this weekend.
What challenges are the Warriors facing this season?
You can stop it at a certain point and that's when we turn off to Hamilton Centre and you can carry on to Cambridge. I'm sure 99.9% of people will be carrying on through Cambridge and then into Tidal as they head south. Or maybe they, you know, off to Coromandel Wall.
How does the NRL Easter Weekend schedule compare to Super Rugby?
This is great. You've advanced the football a little bit on this podcast. We still haven't quite got to where we know it'll get to eventually, which is actual road trips that people are actually doing. At the moment, it's just wherever the fuck we're going at that time. Well, we kind of tossed up really. It was like, what's probably...
What feedback did listeners provide in 'Yours Please'?
one of the most popular in terms of the amount of cars on it. And that one there is the most, in terms of just four lanes of traffic. Of pain. Of pain. That's it. And then we'll branch out to doing, you know, your more scenic ones. Yeah. Your more kind of, Ah, there's a pass.
Yeah, all those kind of things. Highway 35.
The miraculous thing about the new motorway from Auckland to Hamilton is that despite the fact that it was only open, what, like two years ago, it's already immediately under reconstruction. And it's still road cones the entire way down that way. It's not too bad at the moment. half of it sank though didn't it originally that was actually the cleanest run we've done on that one the only road major road works was like Papakura which is still still Auckland still Auckland which is still always under construction just before you hit the turn off to Drury yeah Is the roadworks in this country a bit of a fugazi where they know, hey, we're on our government contracts, the money's not going to run out, so we're just going to keep this thing going?
I used to have a job where we just tied steel cages to put inside concrete slabs, and the guy my first day sat me down and he was just like,
What humorous stories are shared about food experiences?
Look, just plod your way through this. Don't get through a whole week's worth of work in an afternoon, despite the fact that you definitely could, because you're going to blow this whole thing up for us. They all think that it takes me a day to make one cage. So they give you the marathon, not a sprint speech before starting.
He did.
The boss didn't. But I was looking at it like, I can't go any slower than this. This is ridiculous. Yeah, I very much got that vibe on. It's a bit like the Sydney Harbour Bridge when they paint it. By the time they finish painting it, they go back to the other end and it's time to repaint the other end. Yeah. It's kind of like that with the roadworks. There's a lot of history along that motorway as well. We tore the roof off the caravan. Yeah, Pocono. Stopped in Pocono, the town that most people have forgotten.
G-Lane went very historical with it, actually. You'd be surprised to know. When you listen back, he went deep on the history elements for sure.
When I was a child, I used to listen to Radio Pacific. What was it before that? Oh, no, it became something else after Radio Pacific. I think it became like Radio Live. Radio Live, yeah. They were heavily sponsored by, they were massively in the pocket of Big Pocono Bacon. Oh, yeah. And so all I knew of Auckland was that there's this place called Pocono and they sell heaps of bacon.
