Chapter 1: What is the main focus of the Big Show podcast?
For all you mad bastards loving the Big Show podcast, get up even closer. On Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok. Or raw doggies. Four to seven every weekday. On Radio Hodake.
Well, g'day, fellas. Backbone. Hello. Hello. You'll like this. Here we go. I got stiffed coming into work today.
Not for the first time in your life. Am I right? Someone shagged you. No, no. Has there been anywhere that you haven't been stiffed, man?
There was a guy about 15 metres ahead of me unloading stuff out of his truck. Yeah, he was. And he spotted me and he broke out into this huge smile and started jogging towards me. And I had my headphones on. Yeah, maybe. But then as he got close to me, he went to do the high five. And I went to high five him and he put his hand down. That is so good. Really?
And I was like, oh, man, and he cracked up. He fucking stiffed me, man.
Got you good. Did you swing through with it? Yeah, I deduced him. No, I mean, he put the high five up and did you go to, oh, no.
I swished the air. How embarrassing. Good one. So did he then say, like, oh, no, just joking, man? Yeah, he did, but I felt like it was too late by then. By then I'd already humiliated myself. You know what I'm saying, fellas? I like it because it doesn't matter who you are, and you're a big deal. I am. You can be brought crashing down to earth.
Not a day goes by when I don't, you know, get some sort of interaction with the punters out there. Fuck, man. Hoity J. What a legend. A number one. I reckon at least three or four days would go by for me. I would completely agree. Yeah, but you're not in the CBD with hundreds of people every day. That's also true. Yeah, it's true. You know what I mean? That's also true.
You're out in the dark depths of West Auckland. No one goes out on the streets there, man. It's too dangerous. It's true. I love what you're doing here because you're trying to wind me up. Because you know that I'm right on the fringe of West Auckland and proud to be part of West Auckland. But you've come in from so far out west. You know what I mean? Yeah. I see it, Jase, man.

Chapter 2: How does the team share their personal experiences with charity?
I was telling the fellas, actually, it was my loudest night in the city last night, a massive party at about 2 o'clock in the morning, about 10 metres from my bedroom window. So is it out in the park with a big speaker? Yeah, with a big boom box, about 20 dudes just on the piss, screaming and laughing at each other. Having a good time? Having a great time. Fuck, that sounds awesome.
It was like peak party. If you walked into a party at peak time. What day of the week was that? Tuesday? Tuesday. Wow. On the steps, fucking to the park. I was effing and jeffing, I can tell you. And then someone having a massive breakdown at about five. So that wasn't so cool either. Doesn't happen at Westall? No, it does. All the time.
Yeah, I'm surprised that your building mates, your neighbours that live in that building, because they're stuck up. Rich bastards.
No, they're lovely people, Mogi, that listen to this podcast.
That's not what you said, man. In my opinion, they're not. That's not what you said. But I'm surprised that they don't seem to react in any way, shape or form. Is it because they're elderly and deaf or is it they're just used to it?
Oh, no, they do. But they don't leave their apartments. I reckon there's a part of them that loves it. And also, yes, and also you've got a lot of are on the other side. So we're on the side right next to the park. Most of them are on the other side of that, so they're not getting the direct in your face through the window stuff. Yeah. I was a Wednesday last week, I think it was.
Wednesday I was walking down to do my gaming potty there, which involves me walking through the CBD. That is such a good podcast, by the way. Extremely Casual Gamers. So good. It's on TVNZ now, man. It's on TVNZ Plus.
It's a TV show, yeah. Oh, how good. You should watch it. I'll tell you who hasn't got a TV show on TVNZ Plus, and that's old Horty J. He's probably got a few on their dog squad, man. Yeah, true. He's got heaps.
But I was walking through one of the parks.

Chapter 3: What humorous anecdotes do the hosts share about interactions with the public?
I don't believe that story. That was pretty good with Bueller yesterday being effervescently into Moon TV.
Oh, yes.
Was that off air or on air? Off air. Off air, like losing his shit. Over the moon about Moon TV. Yes. That was fucking unreal.
And this is what I love. These little enclaves, Keezy, like whenever I walk home or you're walking up to work, you know, by that Sky City area, Mogi, where they're partying down, you know, most nights. Yeah, that's where I got hit with the pie. Yes. It's a dangerous area there. Fuck, I want to see that.
There's like four or five people just getting on it, you know, and smoking big doobies and fucking sinking the piss. They don't give a shit, man. And Jase is thinking, man, that's living. That totally I am. That'd be great. That's the dream. And then you go past. You don't have this job. You go past in the morning and they're asleep on the bus fucking shelter seat.
Yeah, but for the grace of God, go on.
Yeah, totally, man. Totally.
The Hauraki Big Show, weekdays from 4 on Radio Hauraki. Big Show Podcast.
This job's not holding you back. This is a three-hour job. You could imagine, look, if you were living in one of those bus shelters, how close the commute would be. That's true, man. And you could commute from the party outside your house to your house.

Chapter 4: How do the hosts discuss their experiences with nightlife in Auckland?
Ten year anniversary. I think fair enough. It's unreal. Because probably if I was sober, I'd probably do a bit of work.
Funny that. I can imagine you, for some reason, you've got your wedding suit on again. And you're just doing a bit of work while she's hammered. It's really funny because I knew this person. And I'm not going to give too many details because it might become obvious. And he was in a relationship. He gave up the piss. For like... Two years. Wow. And his partner said, you're so fucking boring now.
Oh, that was Mogi. You're so fucking boring.
Yeah.
you should just get back on it again. And so he did and just went massively downhill. Yeah. And the whole relationship combusted.
Which is effectively what my wife thinks as well. You know, yeah. Yeah, she said if you don't drink, then you don't sit down, which is 100% true. Yes. Because if I'm drinking, that's what I'm doing. And like everything else in my life, I'm giving it a hundy. Yes.
Yeah.
I'm trying to drink better than anyone's ever drunk before. And the tendency is, too, when you don't drink, because you don't go out. I don't want to fucking go out and sit with people getting on the piss. It's just too much.
Well, I go out for half an hour. Yeah, or an hour or something. There's no point.

Chapter 5: What challenges do they mention about living in West Auckland?
Yes. And so I've started giving out like a couple of dollars at a time and stuff. And I'm just going to get $100 worth of $5 notes out. Yes. And then for the next two months, every time there's someone there, here's $5. Yep. Because it's out of control, man.
Yeah. Well, what percentage of your income do you give away to charity? 20%, 30%. Well, I give 15 to church. Because tax is included. So that's about 35%. Oh, tax for me? Oh, in that case, about that. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I tell you what, actually, my wife's a fucking shocker for that. For paying tax? Well, no, for so many charities. I'm like, what the fuck's this one?
Yeah.
What the fuck was that? Oh, God, I just thought we should, you know. And we've been getting into the habit of taking money out. Yeah. And giving it to people. That's literally what I just said I was going to do. That's what I do. I know, but like... 20 bucks, 40 bucks.
Yeah, nah, five bucks. That's literally what I talked about on the show. Remember that guy? Yeah, yeah. And he was like, ah.
The piss stores closed in a million years. Oh, look at the bright side, man. At least you're not homeless. And I thought that was very distasteful. Fucking pretty crook. Tasteless. Tasteless. Not as crook as your cack yarn. Hey, listen to the big show, 407 Weekdays, Radio Haraki. Yeah, man.
