00:06:56 ◼ ► Yes you have anything that you want to mention about the feedback on tipping she know what I would say no. [TS]

00:07:19 ◼ ► and to the point where I'm just like whatever this perfectly plays into what was my main point about the feedback on [TS]
00:07:26 ◼ ► tipping the overwhelming sentiment was hey you guys you're just way over thinking it. [TS]
00:07:35 ◼ ► and then the person outlays how they tip under what their senses which then everything really prescriptive Rose write [TS]
00:07:42 ◼ ► fiction very bright with this group of employees yes those group of employees know this group it's twelve [TS]
00:07:47 ◼ ► and a third percent right that a group with nineteen point two five percent but only if it's Wednesday [TS]
00:07:53 ◼ ► and then the commenter was always acting as though like we are the idiots who just don't understand these rules [TS]
00:07:58 ◼ ► but the best part about being on the receiving end of this kind of follow up is that you see everybody's drastically [TS]
00:08:07 ◼ ► different opinions but everybody thinks it's very obvious right everybody's coming at it from this. [TS]
00:08:14 ◼ ► Everybody know that why why do you find this confusing even though you're hearing from a hundred people a day who have [TS]
00:08:25 ◼ ► and I was trying to I was trying to think like a comparison to this the only thing I could think to compare it to is [TS]
00:08:32 ◼ ► sometimes like the rules of of grammar people will argue over like that away too. Make a sentence. [TS]
00:08:43 ◼ ► and everybody just think that the grammar rules that they learned from Mrs to or will be in the fourth grade. [TS]
00:08:56 ◼ ► and you don't have necessarily super consistent grammar rules everywhere so it's reasonable to be confused about what [TS]
00:09:03 ◼ ► is the true state of this because there is no true state of it there is no better example of that from A [TS]
00:09:15 ◼ ► Oh yeah there's a holy war waiting to happen and I have I'm on the office Assad to on that one [TS]
00:09:21 ◼ ► and I have absolutely no justification for other than just what I was taught to do [TS]
00:09:29 ◼ ► and I can hear the arguments of the other side of that makes absolute perfect sense to me [TS]
00:09:33 ◼ ► and I say yeah you brought everything you say is logic logical Yeah that comma should go there [TS]
00:09:37 ◼ ► and you know I just refused to do it because it's just not it's just I think it's wrong [TS]
00:09:42 ◼ ► and I have no explanation other than it's just that's my room I was taught no Oxford comma in school as a kid was [TS]
00:09:49 ◼ ► really nailed into us as an adult I have broken free the shackles placed upon me by my education [TS]
00:09:57 ◼ ► and I will use the Oxford comma but you're never completely free of the shackles in your mind because you know even [TS]
00:10:03 ◼ ► when I write out the Oxford comma I have to do it somewhat intentionally and it will still look weird to me [TS]
00:10:10 ◼ ► but I think is the is the wave is the way of the future we have to live we have to go with this. [TS]
00:10:16 ◼ ► but I can completely understand your side of this of just like it just feels wrong even though it doesn't make any [TS]
00:10:29 ◼ ► and I think for the rest of their life every time they declare their I.C.'s I'm They probably think sorry about that [TS]
00:10:38 ◼ ► I just don't believe it I am sure you will receive no feedback on that remark for Haiti. [TS]
00:10:44 ◼ ► So ever I think the Oxford cover of paper mournful and in the how I see isn't things. [TS]
00:10:50 ◼ ► Yeah without it without a doubt Oxford comma will be more of a religious war than actual religion to other minor points [TS]
00:10:59 ◼ ► One of which was many many people were telling me what I already knew which is that in the United States the way the [TS]
00:11:08 ◼ ► and waitresses is that if they don't earn enough from tips during their shift to have earned minimum wage their [TS]
00:11:22 ◼ ► but I have also spoken to people who actually work in that industry who unsurprisingly report that that just basically [TS]
00:11:30 ◼ ► doesn't happen that if you're if you're stiffed on tips or you're working a bad shift [TS]
00:11:35 ◼ ► and you're your salary doesn't equal what minimum wage is opposed to be you're not going to get that money out of the [TS]
00:11:44 ◼ ► and what are you going to do like this is one of these situations are going to start trying to sue your employer for [TS]
00:11:49 ◼ ► the money back like you're going to spend many years on a class action lawsuit like is not going to happen which is [TS]
00:12:00 ◼ ► and waitresses out of what should be minimum wage that's why I can I reiterate I know people think inferi it's OK not [TS]
00:12:10 ◼ ► but I would say it is not OK not to tip in a restaurant in America you just you just have to do that now [TS]
00:12:16 ◼ ► and the final point that I want to say that just goes to my feelings about how tipping is uncomfortable for everybody [TS]
00:12:23 ◼ ► is a number of people were telling me about how some drivers do want to expect tips [TS]
00:12:30 ◼ ► and that Goober drivers some of them will rate you as a bad passenger in the system if you don't. [TS]
00:12:38 ◼ ► Tip them as a way to try to let other drivers know not to pick you up one of the things that I think is great about the [TS]
00:12:45 ◼ ► whole Hooper system is that you have a rating that the driver can see before they choose to pick you up so that some [TS]
00:12:53 ◼ ► over drivers are trying to drive down the averages for people who don't tip so that they can pick up tipping customers [TS]
00:13:00 ◼ ► and they like Oh great great thanks yeah this goes exactly to what I think about tipping like it's complicated it's [TS]
00:13:06 ◼ ► socially awkward and fundamentally it feels kind of like blackmail kind you know kind of like bribery. [TS]
00:13:23 ◼ ► and haggling in places like Thailand where it's almost expected that you do a bit of haggling if you just walk up to [TS]
00:13:32 ◼ ► Right and some people obviously drop out about guns and others but apparently if your really hot by going to [TS]

00:13:48 ◼ ► onus don't deal with this person he's an ass and you'll spend half an hour into the kitchen down to eight [TS]
00:13:54 ◼ ► but where is the if you're not much of a bag and your bit of a push I give you a different color bag [TS]
00:14:02 ◼ ► and in knows what to expect because of the bags are hoping from the store you're in before right. [TS]
00:14:06 ◼ ► He's looking at all those green bags thinking this person is money for me I I am just going to assume that is true [TS]
00:14:16 ◼ ► because it is delightful to think that it is true fact you heard on how the Internet now we've been talking over a few [TS]
00:14:29 ◼ ► but I did receive an email that I enjoyed and I want to share with you. So he's the type of gray. [TS]

00:15:24 ◼ ► and I was obviously going to make a little joke about it you know I say have funny how people think their city's famous [TS]
00:15:29 ◼ ► was happening but when I did a little bit of research it turns at Gothenburg is famous for its part in coach [TS]
00:15:36 ◼ ► Apparently I found because I found this other code which was based on a survey a nationwide survey done in Sweden by [TS]
00:15:42 ◼ ► Comedy Central that decided the people have gotten the with the funniest in suede shoes paranoid their accents are [TS]
00:15:55 ◼ ► Puns are the funniest type of Jericho according to the Swedes followed by irony and slapstick. [TS]
00:16:06 ◼ ► and the people of Gothenburg with a funny accent a famous for their pants there must be a side effect of the language I [TS]
00:16:24 ◼ ► or their overlapping all the languages that make them really enjoy puns. Yeah that's quite possible. [TS]
00:16:35 ◼ ► Now I'm glad I don't speak that language whatever it would be because they're not funny. [TS]
00:16:38 ◼ ► So what's a language is well suited to puns one where there's more confusion and overlap or one where the overlap [TS]
00:16:56 ◼ ► Tonality part of indicating meaning that it's not just the sound it's also the rising [TS]
00:17:00 ◼ ► or falling tones that this lends itself to lots of puns or you can make things that sound very similar. [TS]
00:17:06 ◼ ► I'm going to guess that a language that has a great deal of overlap is what lends itself to putting as opposed to a [TS]
00:17:14 ◼ ► language that is bearing an overlap where puns are rare I mean that would make sense doesn't that tallies with the [TS]

00:29:50 ◼ ► but that's a good look at odds are Jerry is sponsoring emergencies like we will have by the way I've been meaning to [TS]
00:30:02 ◼ ► or not I'm going to be able to persuade you to get a dog because we've been avoiding this issue for too long on the [TS]
00:30:06 ◼ ► park have we been avoiding this issue. I feel like we haven't been avoiding this issue because. [TS]
00:30:10 ◼ ► If you constantly badger me about it in just our normal lives like is that we open stark about it in their normal lives [TS]
00:30:20 ◼ ► and I'm just going to I need a bit more time I want to put together my arguments a light you want to get together all [TS]
00:30:27 ◼ ► your paperwork for that one in making nice with a scale actually what I really want to do it is by one entity for [TS]
00:30:32 ◼ ► Christmas in the presence of your wife and then watch what you do yeah you I'll show you what I do you go ahead [TS]
00:30:46 ◼ ► This is a link that I don't know where this thing came from I'm sure it was sent to us by someone say thank you person. [TS]
00:30:55 ◼ ► Sion some people seem to think it's right they have to just be attributed if they send us something [TS]
00:31:00 ◼ ► or suggest we talk about something who are member one time on the podcast I just mentioned are someone sent me a link [TS]
00:31:05 ◼ ► and so much to pray to your freebooting you're freebooting by not attributing I'm not sure that it's very very sick [TS]
00:31:21 ◼ ► and listen to us talk about stuff I never even make any attempt to try to attribute things because they feel like who [TS]
00:31:33 ◼ ► and then immediately just giving up on trying to attribute it whereas I feel like the only the only winning move here [TS]
00:31:39 ◼ ► is just is to not try it's just so hard to keep track of this stuff that's why didn't you do think it's nice to do it [TS]
00:31:47 ◼ ► when you can but unfortunately it does create a precedent that everyone expects they create the president [TS]
00:31:51 ◼ ► and then you also end up with a podcast where a good ten percent of the podcast is discussions on how a person's name [TS]
00:31:59 ◼ ► and then also apologies for not pronouncing it correctly you did that to a whole city just moments ago. [TS]
00:32:04 ◼ ► Sorry ideas at least I didn't go to each person in the city one by one but let's say this link came from Tim OK [TS]
00:32:11 ◼ ► but it him sent us a report all some saw you can click on its ear in the shop knives how far this comes from the the [TS]
00:32:18 ◼ ► safety cast at the Civil Aviation Safety Authority in a straight into something nice the plain people in Australia [TS]
00:32:26 ◼ ► and it's this big report that was done and I haven't I haven't thought this looks boring. [TS]
00:32:30 ◼ ► Yeah I had watching I think it looks quite interesting but I haven't read it but basically it's about whether [TS]
00:32:36 ◼ ► or not it I've done my research into whether or not people are paying attention to flight safety videos [TS]
00:32:42 ◼ ► and have actually used feverishly used some of them will give me a key ones as their exam. [TS]
00:32:46 ◼ ► Yeah we see that the reason this looks terrible is that it opens with the standard opening line for articles that just [TS]
00:32:57 ◼ ► Bilbo Baggins Lady Gaga and the Manchester United football team I think now this is always a terrible open open are [TS]
00:33:04 ◼ ► but all three have been featured in the preflight safety demonstration videos the reason I brought it up was in the [TS]
00:33:09 ◼ ► last part cost when I said I thought it was quite conceivable that research is done into whether [TS]
00:33:22 ◼ ► Assad is likely so I'm just bringing this up to point out not only is it likely we now know that it does happen people [TS]
00:33:29 ◼ ► do research people's attention to airline safety videos and that was the first plank of my argument about whether [TS]
00:33:35 ◼ ► or not it's that there are legal reasons for mixing it up with the airline safety videos [TS]
00:33:41 ◼ ► and I don't want to put that in there you know can't just skimming through this though [TS]
00:33:44 ◼ ► and I am unconvinced by their bullet points here because the big headline here is the problem is people don't pay [TS]
00:33:53 ◼ ► when people don't pay attention so as an example they list an airplane that had the oxygen masks deployed [TS]
00:34:02 ◼ ► and as we all know Brady oxygen may be flowing to the mask even though the bag does not inflate. [TS]
00:34:12 ◼ ► and assist to passengers who were concerned about the bag not inflating on this particular flight [TS]
00:34:18 ◼ ► and all I can say is two people out of an airplane that's amazing like my experiences as a teacher is you can't give [TS]
00:34:29 ◼ ► and be guaranteed all twenty of them are going to follow the instructions that's cuts actually really impressive. [TS]
00:34:34 ◼ ► Yeah even if you have everybody paying attention one hundred percent there was kind of I should bring this up now [TS]
00:34:48 ◼ ► There were some kids who weren't Horan like dumb but you would give instructions to a group and they would sit there [TS]
00:35:04 ◼ ► and they seem to just not believe the group instructions could possibly apply to them [TS]
00:35:10 ◼ ► and so that's why like I just skimming these things over here there's another one is another example here about you [TS]
00:35:16 ◼ ► know six people on an airplane didn't fall the appropriate instructions eight people on an airplane [TS]
00:35:20 ◼ ► and as like these numbers seem tiny to me like so I I'm not convinced that the the opening statement the problem people [TS]
00:35:28 ◼ ► do not pay enough attention is actually a problem I think you're starting from the assumption that if you could get [TS]
00:35:35 ◼ ► everyone to pay full attention to your video that they would follow instructions perfectly I think that is a false [TS]
00:35:43 ◼ ► and I'm also not convinced that making the video more engaging is also going to be guaranteed related to an improvement [TS]
00:35:57 ◼ ► and retain nothing from it I think for example you can watch one of my videos where I talk very quickly [TS]
00:36:04 ◼ ► and moments later maybe remember absolutely nothing even though you were paying attention so I disagree. [TS]
00:36:10 ◼ ► I disagree with the premise of at least my two seconds of skimming this report my skim of this report I was equally [TS]
00:36:17 ◼ ► unimpressed by but to spot the by the whole point I wanted to make was this is an area of research [TS]
00:36:24 ◼ ► and I thought it was inevitable that would be research because airline safety gets research to death [TS]
00:36:29 ◼ ► and I found it impossible to believe this area was in another area that gets researched [TS]
00:36:38 ◼ ► or it's just well funded kind of jobs where it's I don't know and I haven't read this well enough to say for sure [TS]
00:36:55 ◼ ► and plans on the Hill would do it again even in this part cast Yes I know it's coming. [TS]
00:37:04 ◼ ► but while we can still talk about airplanes I was quite delighted to discover the answer to How do pilots relieve [TS]
00:37:13 ◼ ► when they're flying fighter jets across the Atlantic Ocean for ten hours this was a great read commentary by the way [TS]
00:37:24 ◼ ► and say this name X X X I X A These Octavia the season see how yeah I spent a good minute trying to figure out a site [TS]
00:37:33 ◼ ► that you just you speak read it so much better than me so what did his ease Oxiana have to say these Oxy the these Axia [TS]
00:37:43 ◼ ► it's no easier though because it just ends with an I let it go Rick let a can it these archaea that's how you say it's [TS]
00:37:49 ◼ ► just the whole trick is to say it confidently and don't apologize for it that's how I need to do [TS]
00:37:53 ◼ ► and so that's not somewhere G'day new like that's not like the name of some Demon From lot of the rings that I should [TS]
00:38:03 ◼ ► or other the first time I've seen that word and you just I just run with it and don't don't look back [TS]
00:38:10 ◼ ► but yeah so the doc the linked us to the year in collection devices that are commonly referred to as piddle packs that [TS]
00:38:23 ◼ ► and the thing that is most interesting to me is that they can basically they are little almost like the airline [TS]
00:38:30 ◼ ► but there they are shaped in a little bit of an arc so that they can be attached to mail a quip meant rather easily [TS]
00:38:48 ◼ ► Doing the thing that say a long haul trucker does which is taking your empty bottle of Mountain Dew right [TS]
00:38:54 ◼ ► and then just hoping to seal it up right that these these pill packs will turn your urine into something solid [TS]
00:39:04 ◼ ► and the answer about what they do for number two is they wait I would find rather stressful for ten hours. [TS]
00:39:15 ◼ ► Sometimes it has to be done I also found it really interesting that these are also a often used by military snipers [TS]
00:39:21 ◼ ► when they're in their hides a knife a long periods of time say what's colder than pilots [TS]
00:39:30 ◼ ► Yeah I mean the whole killing thing it's a killing people things I guess not great [TS]
00:39:36 ◼ ► when you talk about plane crash corner you tell me to put aside like the horrors of it [TS]
00:39:40 ◼ ► and just discuss the things that that goes with fighter jets and snipers like aside from the murder. [TS]
00:39:53 ◼ ► and I often thought if I was ever going to be in the military sniper training it just seems like that would be amazing. [TS]
00:40:00 ◼ ► The BE GREAT my first instinct is that you would not be a good sniper I might be terrible at it [TS]
00:40:08 ◼ ► Like it if you have to be on the ground I mean really if I was in the military if I had if I was drafted [TS]
00:40:14 ◼ ► or something my number one strategy would be to convince them about like hey I can program computers like let me let me [TS]
00:40:21 ◼ ► Military in a way that is not being on the front line but if I had to be in the front lines. [TS]
00:40:30 ◼ ► Brady five pilots Yeah I mean fighter pilot and then I drive you know a tank or something [TS]
00:40:42 ◼ ► or what I what I mean is if you had to pick a job where you don't get to surround yourself with the protective machine [TS]
00:40:50 ◼ ► would you be the guy holding the telephone I know it's very I wouldn't classify fast a pilot as the safest job in the [TS]
00:40:57 ◼ ► or not I'm just saying you're a dude on the ground would you have a rocket launcher would you be the medic. [TS]
00:41:09 ◼ ► and a half ago done did I tell you that I've done to tell the viewers that on the second one in the series there is [TS]
00:41:15 ◼ ► another there is another video with my dad you know what you know you never mention there's a second one there is [TS]
00:41:21 ◼ ► All right there isn't there is a new video with my debt this one is about him climbing up a hill [TS]
00:41:26 ◼ ► and sort of showing you the geography of the base where he was with his in Vietnam there we go it's like a it's it's [TS]
00:41:34 ◼ ► And combat of the first ones but it tells you a lot of about how how it worked and how that helicopter in and out [TS]
00:41:39 ◼ ► and things like that it's pretty good it's are are holding to you can have a look if you like in the Shona Yeah look at [TS]
00:41:52 ◼ ► Course I meant to and check out the book and check out the book available on Amazon. [TS]
00:41:57 ◼ ► Now you just track as the book the book The good part don't watch my video the books we should be rating to get the [TS]
00:42:04 ◼ ► videos I think we have shredder follow up this is also very exciting to me so much the only one. [TS]
00:42:14 ◼ ► and just because someone asks for something doesn't mean they're going to get on the podcast [TS]
00:42:23 ◼ ► and that is that is the news that I have not been shredding for quite some time now because I have suffered a major jam [TS]
00:42:30 ◼ ► that I cannot fix all I mean the paper jam in your shredder is that what you mean. [TS]
00:42:36 ◼ ► Yeah yeah I put through too many bits of paper at once and it seems to of course I've tried like going forward [TS]
00:42:42 ◼ ► and this is a thing which traders is they tempt you to push them to the edge of the always think this seems good I can [TS]
00:42:51 ◼ ► I can I can fit eight simultaneous pieces of paper or maybe tens I'm not a nice piece and then sooner [TS]
00:42:56 ◼ ► or later there's some there's some trouble my trick yeah I have found is use a letter opener as the best tool for D. [TS]
00:43:05 ◼ ► Let me try to literature the sound what the should be on your other point cast if we're talking about things like [TS]
00:43:13 ◼ ► and things I have not tried to let our i've got a Swiss army knife I stick by bin Laden and see what happens. [TS]
00:43:19 ◼ ► The other the other great solution is to just buy a bigger shredder that's really wonder strategem tells you that it's [TS]
00:43:25 ◼ ► time to buy a bigger shredder I don't think I need a bigger strata you can always use a bigger shredder I could do you [TS]
00:43:32 ◼ ► think about how big is yours I'm I am still using what in my mind was just some temporary shredder writes The problem [TS]
00:43:40 ◼ ► is that has been jammed so I guess I don't have an excuse to get into one to sort of realize your lender to make for a [TS]
00:43:45 ◼ ► few days drive take care that after the show I'm going to run all these tax documents there to try to jam it real good [TS]
00:43:52 ◼ ► or I did want to ask you what you thought of that good news new Lego using Google's new logo you like [TS]
00:43:57 ◼ ► and no it didn't like it you don't like it really interesting I do like I'm coming down on the side of I do like it [TS]
00:44:07 ◼ ► and I was twenty five remember what the album was but I don't like a fly don't you like it. I think it's too childish. [TS]
00:44:19 ◼ ► and I'm betting that the design spec was make it look like the magnetic letters that go on people's refrigerators that [TS]
00:44:27 ◼ ► has to be what they were going for because that is exactly what the logo looks like then why do you lack of the [TS]
00:44:33 ◼ ► childishness So what why do you like it I don't know I think this is one case where it where it works I mean Google [TS]
00:44:40 ◼ ► Google is just a silly word you know Google Google Google GOOG agoa right it sounds like babies Yeah [TS]
00:44:47 ◼ ► and Google's Google's corporate image has always been somewhat playful I think maybe a is the way to describe it. [TS]
00:44:57 ◼ ► and then this also fits in with their overarching Google is now a subsidiary of a company called alphabet like this [TS]
00:45:08 ◼ ► but what I have to say what I like is is not even so much just that the like on the Google search page that this logo [TS]
00:45:23 ◼ ► And also if you do any voice search with Google they redid the way the little microphone works to match up with a [TS]
00:45:34 ◼ ► and I think they did a good job making it look consistent across a bunch of stuff I'm going to give it a thumbs up. [TS]
00:45:43 ◼ ► I'm a fan I think it's it's clean and I think the childishness is is perfectly OK in in this moment. [TS]
00:45:52 ◼ ► Although it did take me longer than usual to actually notice because I have actually recently finally release which to [TS]
00:45:58 ◼ ► Duck Duck Go which I maligned many podcasts ago for not having great search results but they have been improved. [TS]
00:46:07 ◼ ► Everywhere now instead of Google so I won't actually be looking at the Google logo every single day [TS]
00:46:11 ◼ ► but I do like it I mean given the thumbs up on this one now that the search results a better on Dr go why have why [TS]
00:46:21 ◼ ► moved them why move away from Google what do you not like a baker who is a fictitious the creepy data stuff [TS]
00:46:27 ◼ ► or what do you not like about cable because the searchers up some pretty good on yeah their search results are pretty [TS]
00:46:34 ◼ ► and at least for the moment one of the things I like on Google is the option to search for stuff within a time period [TS]
00:46:44 ◼ ► but often if I'm trying to do some like I'm looking up a solution to some tech problem I'm trying to fix something on [TS]
00:46:51 ◼ ► Show me results that are only from within the last year because very often all you know if you don't do that you get [TS]
00:46:57 ◼ ► results from years and years ago that aren't relevant but so Google definitely still has its purposes [TS]
00:47:07 ◼ ► The you to business stuff from just like oh I'm a person searching for things on Google all day like I'm just aware [TS]
00:47:14 ◼ ► it's it's impossible on my browsers to not always be logged into at least one of the You Tube [TS]
00:47:26 ◼ ► and so I just feel because Google does have that little bit of a creepy we're always watching you [TS]
00:47:31 ◼ ► and using all of this data to predict stuff about you that I do want to put a little bit of a barrier between like oh [TS]
00:47:38 ◼ ► Grey Google account that is used for You Tube and official business stuff and then separate out like high M.C.G. [TS]
00:47:45 ◼ ► Gray a person who's just searching for stuff on the Internet like you just want to put a little bit of distance between [TS]
00:47:50 ◼ ► those two and now that Duck Duck Go results are good enough. I'm happy to have them be the default everywhere. [TS]
00:47:58 ◼ ► when I was a big fat that it always comes down to my stark mode goes a long way and where it comes down to duck [TS]
00:48:03 ◼ ► but do you think of those creepy like this is one of these things where like how do you feel about that do you think [TS]
00:48:11 ◼ ► Yeah creepy doesn't worry me as much as it were easier Nom I'm you know as I was going to say paranoid [TS]
00:48:22 ◼ ► but yeah tonight I mean it depends on my mood in a given day my mood today is what you're saying makes a lot of sense [TS]
00:48:29 ◼ ► and I feel like I should do that I should make away from them I don't need them and you know I use them for work [TS]
00:48:37 ◼ ► Plus accounts and she became a major said also be you know searching for a recipient on them as well paranoid [TS]
00:48:44 ◼ ► or even cautious is is overblowing it because even I can't quite put my finger on why I feel this way. [TS]
00:48:53 ◼ ► Someone says What do you think is the worst case scenario here it's very hard to say what that would even be it's like [TS]
00:48:59 ◼ ► oh Google Google the algorithms know more about me and like and I care why not really I have a hard time placing. [TS]
00:49:13 ◼ ► but I'm just happy to have a little bit of separation between me searching for stuff [TS]
00:49:18 ◼ ► and the thing that I use for the vast majority of my business now that it is a more practical possibility [TS]
00:49:25 ◼ ► but I can't say I can't say why and I don't feel like I have any convincing arguments for why that would be why [TS]
00:49:32 ◼ ► or why anyone should do that this episode has been brought to you by Harry's dot com The owner that Harry's by now they [TS]
00:49:40 ◼ ► sponsor the show all the time and they're brilliant I use their products myself by sickly their war there [TS]

00:52:55 ◼ ► OK I am down but just barely point nine pounds which I think comes out to be zero kilograms [TS]
00:53:05 ◼ ► and I can remember how it works and so you're pretty much the same a head down and I'm out. [TS]
00:53:11 ◼ ► We like the worst Romo to well well this is exactly it because the point nine down is one of the things where this is [TS]

00:54:19 ◼ ► basically no progress and in no small part is because when I'm under a big work pressure like that is just [TS]
00:54:31 ◼ ► and I just always find myself kind of justifying it is like well you're up all night for. [TS]

01:23:13 ◼ ► As a kid I was always fascinated by robots I always just love robots as a kid I have lost the little robot toys [TS]
01:23:21 ◼ ► and as as you do with a kid like you'd think about robots and an amazing future with robots [TS]
01:23:27 ◼ ► and maybe one day being a robot and like that that was a kind of stuff that I know the kid me used to think about [TS]
01:23:42 ◼ ► but that I am still very interested in developments in robots in the modern world. [TS]
01:23:51 ◼ ► Did you have like did you have of oh your robot toys did you have like a fight you for that one that sticks in your [TS]
01:23:56 ◼ ► mind the most like you have any you know you mentally related robot toys I had tons of Transformers [TS]
01:24:03 ◼ ► and I had just lost a lot I remember like in wood shop class you had to build something I tried to build a robotic arm [TS]
01:24:12 ◼ ► and was very sad that of course is just made out of wood and it's not a real working arm that can do anything. [TS]
01:24:23 ◼ ► when I was last in America my parents were trying to go through some of the stuff that they had left over from my [TS]
01:24:31 ◼ ► and one of the things that were going through was as a mentor before on the show that my mom was a flight attendant for [TS]
01:24:42 ◼ ► when I was a little little kid she used to bring me toys from Japan because Japan was her regular her regular flight [TS]
01:24:54 ◼ ► These transformer robots but they were also the letters of the alphabet I had those for forever [TS]
01:25:04 ◼ ► and it was a bit of it was it was quite the blast from the past as a grown up to find a box full of these things [TS]
01:25:11 ◼ ► when I went back and I was going through some old stuff in my parents' house last time I was there. [TS]
01:25:17 ◼ ► Would you describe yourself as having more of a collective that at shoot to the robot so we head into playing with them [TS]
01:25:22 ◼ ► unlike bashing them against each other and making them do things would you like to sort of display them [TS]
01:25:29 ◼ ► and that So now I was totally into playing with them as a kid I was not a I was not a collector a kid I've always been [TS]
01:25:35 ◼ ► rather rough with the object that I own so no I was not that I was not displaying them prominently did you have to make [TS]
01:25:50 ◼ ► and I was always frustrated by some of the limitations at the time of like you can't really do anything with this in [TS]
01:25:57 ◼ ► and I do look with envy at some of the stuff that's available for kids these days with relatively simple robotic tools [TS]
01:26:03 ◼ ► that are programmable and I think oh man I would have loved that as a kid but it was not available to me. [TS]
01:26:13 ◼ ► and you're aware that the robots of the future wouldn't be these kind of unite humanoid C three POS [TS]
01:26:18 ◼ ► and they were more likely to be take a different form all was little naive great thinking we'd all have luck [TS]
01:26:26 ◼ ► and things like that no no I definitely even as a kid was always thinking like oh these Star Wars robots they're fun [TS]
01:26:37 ◼ ► or else they're not real that this is not this is not what people working in robotics are really going for so I was I [TS]
01:26:44 ◼ ► was very interested in like some of the very primitive robotic stuff that was around but I was aware [TS]
01:26:50 ◼ ► when movies were just being movies like you know the Johnny five movies like short circuit with Johnny Five Alive it's [TS]
01:27:09 ◼ ► but the now my understanding is that this corner is really just stuff really want to talk about corner so would you [TS]
01:27:14 ◼ ► want to bring up my my one for the LIST today that I was obsessed with is going to be extinction the whole idea of X. [TS]
01:27:23 ◼ ► Animals going extinct like completely fascinated me as I go out I just thought it was luck had everything it had like [TS]
01:27:36 ◼ ► and the we didn't bring up your own mortality as well no I just I very rarely extrapolated the extinction of animals to [TS]
01:27:46 ◼ ► and I think that's something that came later I think I mean obviously dinosaurs foremost in a young Brady's thinking [TS]
01:27:56 ◼ ► but also as a young Australian I think the the pin up boy for extinction is the Tasmanian tiger. [TS]
01:28:10 ◼ ► and strata aside dinosaurs of course the the the pin up boy of extinction is testimony in Tiger. [TS]
01:28:26 ◼ ► but then one of these moments where I realize this isn't a striking thing the Silas nane the last one died I think in [TS]
01:28:34 ◼ ► and it's like oh I do know this thing I do know that you know I've seen pictures of this it is one of the Along with [TS]
01:28:41 ◼ ► like something like the Dodo I think it's one of the cliched animals that went extinct animals. [TS]
01:28:48 ◼ ► Sorry that's obviously Rio roof a very fast and because I could go to like the South Australian Museum as well [TS]
01:28:54 ◼ ► and see like a stuffed one certainly is just want to be told they no longer exist that was caught. [TS]
01:29:01 ◼ ► and I think extinction still has quite a powerful hold over certain have my brain what do you think about extinction [TS]
01:29:08 ◼ ► and you kind of this kind of you know pragmatic Well that's part of you know the way it's the nature works [TS]
01:29:14 ◼ ► or do you think of as a kind of pollution thing as well that has a has an effect on you I mean it's just it's it's both [TS]
01:29:23 ◼ ► things that if the problem is I think the term in the industry is talking about charismatic megafauna that we have as [TS]
01:29:44 ◼ ► when panda's seem to be doing everything they possibly can to make themselves extinct. [TS]
01:29:49 ◼ ► Pandas just want to lay down for a long sleep and humans will not let them because we love them [TS]
01:29:53 ◼ ► and their door ball so it's like extinction is a very very broad brush thing where there's many there are many [TS]
01:30:02 ◼ ► and make them all extinct I would so it depends on who you're talking about with extinction would be petted mosquitoes [TS]
01:30:09 ◼ ► went extinct there one of these things were all but there are porn part of this whatever. [TS]
01:30:18 ◼ ► They're bad boys at Iraq thing that I've looked into it is that people usually argue about oh there's so many things [TS]
01:30:22 ◼ ► that eat mosquitoes but there's nothing that mosquitoes are the majority of its diet and K. [TS]
01:30:27 ◼ ► So animals would that you know they had they figure things out if the mosquitoes were gone they would just eat some [TS]
01:30:34 ◼ ► and frankly much more concerned about the suffering of humans than I am about the suffering of mosquitoes. [TS]
01:30:42 ◼ ► or a bird somewhere being slightly more hungry so it has to even additional caterpillar like in the grand scheme of [TS]
01:30:48 ◼ ► things I'm going to say that the human suffering matters more because humans are able to conceptualize the suffering [TS]
01:30:54 ◼ ► but doesn't the balance then get thrown out like you say I would've stayed in the bed late next to Caterpillar [TS]
01:30:59 ◼ ► but then suddenly too many caterpillars get tipped over the balance and then this does [TS]
01:31:03 ◼ ► and that has been so whenever we mess with things for what we think is the greater good. [TS]
01:31:11 ◼ ► Always like have you seen civilization is a civilization is nothing but us constantly messing with stuff [TS]
01:31:16 ◼ ► and the next game it is easy to focus on the part of the west out of our animals What are some animals we've driven to [TS]
01:31:26 ◼ ► but the OK But now now you're talking about a specific thing about with extinctions you say whenever we know it with a [TS]
01:31:48 ◼ ► Snap my fingers and roll the dice on getting rid of all the mosquitoes I'm not even saying you're wrong. [TS]
01:31:54 ◼ ► I'm just wondering if you can for my intellectual curiosity tell me another animal that way. [TS]
01:31:58 ◼ ► Watch out it's quite possible we have I don't know maybe there is an animal that was just bad news [TS]
01:32:03 ◼ ► and we got rid of some little bad bug or something it would be. It would be an animal might go to example is polio. [TS]
01:32:15 ◼ ► but that is something that we certainly drove to extinction you know what no one's no one's cry [TS]
01:32:20 ◼ ► and how it knocked over the internal ecosystem of humans where do things like any kind of parasites you know that you [TS]
01:32:26 ◼ ► try to get rid of him he would populations like we've What is it like tapeworms in the United States are basically [TS]
01:32:35 ◼ ► Is in isn't worse because of that I'm not going to rule out extinction has universally bad it depends on what is going [TS]
01:32:48 ◼ ► Oh I didn't realize clothes just look I went out to get paid to look at an extinct animals before hand because you know [TS]
01:32:54 ◼ ► I'm no expert at the first one of the top things that came up was that there was a whole page dedicated to animals from [TS]
01:33:00 ◼ ► Al could out favorite Reunion Island that is going to come yeah which risk which I didn't realize it was such a famous [TS]

01:33:57 ◼ ► Well no I think it should be the reunions won't pan right yet and I'm sticking with that [TS]
01:34:08 ◼ ► And if we can't have an official bird of the park this is the Google thing all over I don't have any reasons I just [TS]
01:34:16 ◼ ► feel so resistant to it for thought what was the like if we were going to have like an official flag obviously that's [TS]
01:34:28 ◼ ► but surely an official bird of the podcast which he couldn't give two hoots about you just let me have an official bit [TS]
01:34:34 ◼ ► of the park as kind of like you have official I guess the official flower of a podcast like a Florida should probably [TS]
01:34:41 ◼ ► Way sent me I don't think I want to go I want to go with the reunion swamp in as their official bird because I also [TS]
01:35:01 ◼ ► and it's like no question see what exactly the reunion small pen write the extinct reunions want pain that this is like [TS]
01:35:10 ◼ ► the What animal is are the canary Isles named after like are now is not birds not canaries dogs cannot say so that's [TS]

01:36:01 ◼ ► Yes yes but not that not that one not that iconic one and extinct species of Ridley [TS]
01:36:11 ◼ ► but it looks like a grizzly bear I couldn't tell them looking at this picture thinking I can tell the difference [TS]
01:36:18 ◼ ► but I'm looking at a picture of a grizzly bear you have character in fact there's look at this picture [TS]
01:36:27 ◼ ► but it the caption was this is a grizzly which is the closest living relative to the thing that we don't have the where [TS]
01:36:35 ◼ ► What was the biggest bear ever see that's the point it was smaller than it's like OK well whatever [TS]
01:36:40 ◼ ► but if they're bigger than modern Grizzlies than than as a little filing you know that the the loss for hikers in the [TS]
01:36:47 ◼ ► woods because Americans love things that a big added as if the abbey as a big advantage as a ten percent bigger you [TS]
01:36:56 ◼ ► when I'm in America compared to other countries how much more often the food the merits of food is advertised by the [TS]
01:37:05 ◼ ► How else are you supposed to measure food Brady will put that Lee but it's never like this is the healthiest [TS]
01:37:11 ◼ ► or this is the most delicious all this it's always this is twenty percent bigger than the other one of the it's now [TS]
01:37:22 ◼ ► but it's volume I don't know I don't know how else you would measure food that's the right thing with food I was [TS]
01:37:30 ◼ ► looking up at the American animals that became extinct because anybody care about America most the time. [TS]
01:37:46 ◼ ► and no we can't have one of the this is exactly this I promise I promise this wasn't planned beforehand this is coming [TS]
01:37:53 ◼ ► but I did notice they want to see that point kinds of rice rats with them tell them during the Ross rats you should [TS]
01:37:58 ◼ ► have read the rest of the thing is you don't have to plan it ahead of time this is just what happens with you I don't [TS]
01:38:06 ◼ ► like don't get me wrong I wasn't thinking that you were scheming about how can you get an official rice rat I just know [TS]
01:38:21 ◼ ► and several pod cast from now we're going to have to have a little section where you decommission the rice rat because [TS]
01:38:26 ◼ ► you realize how ridiculous it is because the rice red community didn't respond to you with the gratefulness that you [TS]
01:38:36 ◼ ► That's where this initial Let's read a book going I think it would be brilliant to have an official rice rat have many [TS]
01:38:46 ◼ ► or decided they would like another one decided that they would have the marsh Rice read that original rice rat I don't [TS]
01:38:53 ◼ ► even know to Russ right is I'm not even looking at the page because it doesn't even matter. [TS]
01:38:58 ◼ ► Even matter what it is clear that is the Brady fascination that the well well well I'm calling it the Jamaican rights [TS]
01:39:20 ◼ ► but you must we do have to dig for it could have a little I could never do Jamaican Russ right at the center of it. [TS]
01:39:26 ◼ ► No we already have two designs that we're talking about we have we have to narrow down from the two that we've got sick [TS]

01:39:37 ◼ ► one the other day and you said no I want to think about it and you never got back to me that sounds possible. [TS]
01:39:46 ◼ ► but I think I think we've probably would said that to my list of things I was obsessed with the cicada along with [TS]
01:39:53 ◼ ► volcanoes and I think we have extincted that topic it is we're done with all right now I would [TS]
01:40:00 ◼ ► and now before we move on I would just like to give a moment's silence to the extinct Jamaican restaurants fish [TS]

01:41:10 ◼ ► Hover can automatically transfer them for you and again I have tried to transfer domain names between registrars [TS]
01:41:18 ◼ ► but with hover you don't even have to think about it just tell them what you want moved and they can move it for you. [TS]
01:41:24 ◼ ► In addition they have a new service where if you want to connect the domain name that you have purchased with something [TS]
01:41:30 ◼ ► like a square space site or something like Shopify dot com Again they'll set it up just for you. [TS]
01:41:40 ◼ ► and it automatically shows up as the website that you have made this is exactly what I have done with square space [TS]

01:42:43 ◼ ► Last pod cast as many put cats before we found speaking about flags the Super Bowl of flags that is currently going on [TS]
01:42:55 ◼ ► and boy has it been a drama full couple of weeks since we put out that pod casts could we have times the podcast any [TS]
01:43:02 ◼ ► better basically came out the day before they put their long list down to a short list of four it's almost like they [TS]
01:43:08 ◼ ► reacted to a podcast and we kind of set the wheels turning in New Zealand I said I carry Brady and grass bike [TS]
01:43:17 ◼ ► Honestly it felt that way to me even though I have to keep reminding myself like you know New Zealand didn't do this [TS]
01:43:27 ◼ ► when everyone was saying that they've come out with a short as I was like oh yeah I'm glad they finally did that now [TS]
01:43:32 ◼ ► that we have if you have given them the kick in the butt necessary to get the next stage of this moving [TS]
01:43:40 ◼ ► but I did find my brain somehow taking credit for the so they have narrowed it down to four. [TS]
01:43:46 ◼ ► Amongst which they must choose one to go head to head with the current flag some steps. [TS]
01:43:58 ◼ ► when we were talking last time because last time we were talking about the I said the short list because I thought we [TS]
01:44:04 ◼ ► were at the shortlist stage but in the last episode I should have been talking about the long list that with the four. [TS]
01:44:14 ◼ ► Thirty nine because one got struck out on copyright grounds and so what I thought was going to happen. [TS]
01:44:20 ◼ ► Was Of those forty I thought that forty was going to be put to a vote in the Alternative Vote method that they are [TS]
01:44:28 ◼ ► using in New Zealand where people could say all right one two three four there was in my favorites [TS]
01:44:33 ◼ ► and then I'm done with it that's what I thought was going to happen but that is not what happened. [TS]
01:44:44 ◼ ► and those four are the ones that New Zealanders are going to vote on that that is what is going to happen next. [TS]
01:44:52 ◼ ► Says I have a public via on those four and then another public vote on the winner of those four versus the current one. [TS]
01:44:58 ◼ ► Yes that's what's going to happen and both these votes done with people turning up to the polls [TS]
01:45:03 ◼ ► or is there some kind of online component to this seems silly to have people actually go to the polls twice this is a [TS]
01:45:09 ◼ ► question I don't know if I don't know if they're going to physical polls for the vote [TS]
01:45:13 ◼ ► or if it can be done online if New Zealand is one of those modern countries like is Donia that has their act together [TS]
01:45:20 ◼ ► or if like America you still need to treasure out to the physical voting polls somewhere I do not know the answer to [TS]
01:45:28 ◼ ► OK Anyway even this narrowing it down to four has plenty to talk about yes this has been I would say quite contentious. [TS]
01:45:40 ◼ ► If we look at that if we look at the for there is the core root design I know I mentioned last time which is the black [TS]
01:45:47 ◼ ► and white spiral design is the best movie scribe it yeah there is one flag that is just a fern going across the [TS]
01:46:10 ◼ ► The same except for a palette swap with have the New Zealand fern on the left side of the flag basically [TS]
01:46:20 ◼ ► and the Southern Cross on the right side of the flag and one of urgent of this is red white and blue [TS]
01:46:26 ◼ ► and one version of this is black white and blue but they are essentially the same flag [TS]
01:46:45 ◼ ► and white fern flag the furnace in the same kind of diagonal direction it's just missing the Southern Cross [TS]
01:46:57 ◼ ► and I have to say we were discussing last time that the Zealand had just an over abundance of excellent flags to choose [TS]
01:47:05 ◼ ► from. Yeah and this narrowing down to four is terrible it rich sites I've snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. [TS]
01:47:15 ◼ ► Yeah yeah I have to agree with us be I'm going to lay my cards on the table right now I'm a big fan of the courtroom [TS]
01:47:24 ◼ ► design the black and white spiral I like that I think if I was living in New Zealand there's no choice [TS]
01:47:34 ◼ ► but even to me it feels like if that wins it is an illegitimate victory because it is up against. [TS]
01:47:47 ◼ ► Competitions so it even if even if the core ruins I will feel like I was it should have been up against stronger flags [TS]
01:47:55 ◼ ► and one so I'm looking at this I'm thinking if I have to put money on the table I might actually predict the New [TS]
01:48:04 ◼ ► Geno why it has occurred to me that is how thing has been sabotaged this is what happened with this trial Ian in my [TS]
01:48:14 ◼ ► but I'm going to cut out the In my opinion poll Yeah you just gotta tell you story and I've made mention of before [TS]
01:48:20 ◼ ► but there was this famously a lot of a stratagems thought that strategy should become a republic [TS]
01:48:25 ◼ ► and then there was a group that thought we should stay you know under the under the Monica a manner [TS]
01:48:29 ◼ ► and it was a strong feeling that the reason we stayed as part of the monarchy was that the the vote between the [TS]
01:48:38 ◼ ► Republicans was very cleverly split it almost like they think they pitched at the Republicans against each other about [TS]
01:48:53 ◼ ► and you were using a first past the post vote so yes the strategy is to split the alternatives are to split the [TS]
01:48:59 ◼ ► and then yeah so that I feel like that's kind of what's happened if you wanted to keep the current New Zealand flag the [TS]
01:49:10 ◼ ► And it almost I ask I mean not a New Zealand politics from Adam but it almost feels like maybe that's what happened [TS]
01:49:17 ◼ ► but there's a few things to talk about here is lot going on I don't necessarily think it's a bunch of lame options [TS]
01:49:22 ◼ ► but the problem that I think with these three similar fern flags is that it makes it hard for anybody to feel like they're [TS]
01:49:30 ◼ ► really backing one of them because it almost makes you doubt yourself when you look at them [TS]
01:49:35 ◼ ► and you think who do I like it better with black in the corner or do I like it better with red in the corner. [TS]
01:49:41 ◼ ► They should have just pick one flag with this fern design in the stars and then had two other different flags [TS]
01:49:49 ◼ ► and make the choice clear for people I just think it even people who would have liked one of these flags under other [TS]
01:50:01 ◼ ► Second guessing themselves with color palettes or slightly different design elements. [TS]
01:50:05 ◼ ► Oprah is this not a son maybe of Michu a decision making I mean if you were designing the hello internet logo which he [TS]
01:50:15 ◼ ► I'm sure you thought of a few different things and then use eroding what you wanted as you got further [TS]
01:50:20 ◼ ► and further down the process and I'm sure towards the end you probably had the big shot in the middle [TS]
01:50:29 ◼ ► and slight changes of the shade of gray that you were thinking about and should dismiss a bit to the left [TS]
01:50:34 ◼ ► and a bit to the right as you get closer to a decision would it not be the case that all your options start looking [TS]
01:50:44 ◼ ► and if they are getting close to their final flag does not make sense that you've got to the signed with slight color [TS]
01:50:49 ◼ ► differences I disagree because I think this is you're talking about the work of one designer working on one thing so [TS]
01:50:57 ◼ ► this is what you should expect the designers of each of these individual flags to be doing like I'm sure the guy who [TS]
01:51:06 ◼ ► and then figuring how far over do I want the spiral to be how thick should the spiral be that's very natural for that [TS]
01:51:16 ◼ ► and done with that at the time for that finishes what you're saying what I'm saying is that process is how you come up [TS]
01:51:22 ◼ ► with the individual designs but the whole thing with the committee is selection between designs [TS]
01:51:34 ◼ ► Right and to let people vote on them and so that's why I just I don't agree that this is like a narrowing down. [TS]
01:51:43 ◼ ► and you don't think the committee saying look we actually think they in day is the best the one with his pal a switch [TS]
01:51:51 ◼ ► but we don't know which one of the which color should be there so we went eagerness to decide on their own by the way [TS]
01:51:57 ◼ ► when another fair I wouldn't be surprised if this is a result of the the commission themselves having some split [TS]
01:52:08 ◼ ► and this is almost almost the app absolute perfect example of bike shedding right where everybody likes to argue about [TS]
01:52:14 ◼ ► the color of a thing and there are guys he couldn't you couldn't have just made the decision [TS]
01:52:20 ◼ ► and pick pick one of the like this is your job as a committee as it I feel that there's something weird going on with [TS]
01:52:28 ◼ ► and then part of the scandal of what has happened in the past several weeks is that one of the women on the committee [TS]
01:52:33 ◼ ► had to admit that you have a conflict of interest because she's on some government board which is which has the job of [TS]
01:52:45 ◼ ► and then we get three of these designs it's as if it's been it's been an interesting an interesting process to watch [TS]
01:53:03 ◼ ► when we were talking eventually how you thought the versions of the firm that was being used. [TS]
01:53:09 ◼ ► Didn't quite ring truth a little narrow bit rounder denied lacked the nice ages of the one associated with the opex [TS]
01:53:19 ◼ ► and a has turned out that that not slightly look better looking one used by the rugby Association was sort of struck [TS]
01:53:28 ◼ ► out because of copyright the Brooke because we you know Eason asinine So the had to kind of slightly adapt it [TS]
01:53:35 ◼ ► and make it look a bit different so they could get around this copyright issue which goes some way to explaining why [TS]
01:53:41 ◼ ► Do look a bit different I think the rugby people should have you know been the big man here [TS]
01:53:47 ◼ ► and let it go I think New Zealand you had one job your job was to have a black flag on it that's all you had to do. [TS]
01:53:56 ◼ ► And the rugby people had to step aside and say look we're so awesome and I like I say [TS]
01:54:03 ◼ ► and it's also going to be a flag that actually probably has some benefit in my it hasn't benefited them I can [TS]
01:54:08 ◼ ► understand what their concerns with the pain but I think there had to step aside or the government had stepping [TS]
01:54:14 ◼ ► but they had one job they still had an option that was the fan on the black flag that didn't make the final and [TS]
01:54:24 ◼ ► and one of the arguments that was going around is this how it looks like ISIS especially I guess [TS]
01:54:44 ◼ ► and the dumb argument I think that Saddam I can you know make a decision about a flag for the indefinite future based [TS]
01:54:51 ◼ ► on the particulars of politics today and the black is such a striking color on a flag [TS]
01:54:58 ◼ ► and unlike many other nations like New Zealand has a legitimate claim to the color black. [TS]
01:55:04 ◼ ► If you if you have that you run with that if the either thing is dumb enough to serve absolutely dumb. [TS]
01:55:14 ◼ ► and it was well the prime minister who play didn't said that to be black on the flag a current member who was in having [TS]
01:55:19 ◼ ► a look now it was a year the Prime Minister John Key said he wasn't Kanan on a black background. [TS]
01:55:28 ◼ ► Another interesting thing that's come up I'm sure there are other things you want to talk about great is there's been [TS]
01:55:43 ◼ ► That Dan Brown book was the Dan Brown book that set the Vatican and when they're and they're voting on the pope and [TS]
01:55:50 ◼ ► and the last minute they just have a wild card comes in the room and they Aleck Tim like by acclamation [TS]
01:56:00 ◼ ► when the Democrats were deciding who was going to replace bottom I had like a last minute person come in here [TS]
01:56:05 ◼ ► and they've gone through the primaries I know I like the idea of that some some last minute flag coming in [TS]
01:56:11 ◼ ► and not been properly vetted and sweeping in and becoming a contender. What do you think of that flag. [TS]
01:56:17 ◼ ► Yeah and look at this a thing that has happened it has been that big of an Internet campaign for this flag. [TS]
01:56:23 ◼ ► Called the red peak and this is their minds me of you showed me that flag for Earth awhile back [TS]
01:56:30 ◼ ► and one of the pod cast where someone had done a mock up of how does the flag for Earth look under various situations [TS]
01:56:36 ◼ ► how does it look in space how does it look you know on the side of a building on the side of a ship [TS]
01:56:44 ◼ ► and while I was not really sold on that flag of Earth I have looked at this red peak design and I have thought. [TS]
01:56:50 ◼ ► Sold I am one hundred percent sold on this I think it looks good I think it's a strong option [TS]
01:56:57 ◼ ► and they like this to me is exactly the kind of different sort of design that should have been in the final four min [TS]
01:57:05 ◼ ► it's very different for the listeners the red peak is if you imagine there is a triangle upright in the center like a [TS]
01:57:13 ◼ ► pyramid from the base of the flag up to the top middle of the flag that is white there is a smaller red triangle within [TS]
01:57:21 ◼ ► it that is the red peak and then the left hand side the space above the triangle is black [TS]
01:57:30 ◼ ► Saw I would say like first glance you don't I say it's like a Red Mountain with snow all over it and the sky [TS]
01:57:39 ◼ ► and the sky on the other half is below its beautiful Brady It's that pure poetry which is saying there. [TS]
01:57:47 ◼ ► and says Say Yeah it does it does in the design page runs through why they talk about it [TS]
01:57:57 ◼ ► Or this flag should have been in the final for something different something that is unrelated to traditional images in [TS]
01:58:05 ◼ ► the way that we think of it like you can you have four options pick one that is something modern That is just something [TS]
01:58:12 ◼ ► different even though I generally think that the the colors red white and blue are way over used on flags. [TS]
01:58:21 ◼ ► and the way this is done doesn't bother me at all it doesn't faze me in the slightest those red white [TS]
01:58:26 ◼ ► and blue so I think this is a really really strong design contender for a New Zealand flag my problem with the red [TS]
01:58:35 ◼ ► paper is that it doesn't like a national flag to me it looks like a semi for signaling flag [TS]
01:58:42 ◼ ► or it looks like something that you should be using to communicate to another ship to keep to the left [TS]
01:58:47 ◼ ► or something it doesn't say nation to me it says like I've got utility I'm just a useful flag that's used in a car race [TS]
01:58:55 ◼ ► to warn you that this oil on the track ahead things like that I can see where you with me that comparison [TS]
01:59:00 ◼ ► but I like it I think it's I think it's a good design if red paint had made a into the short list against Corey which [TS]
01:59:08 ◼ ► would you have gone full access as a tough question I I might still go for Kaoru overread peak [TS]
01:59:20 ◼ ► but this going back to my earlier complaint would feel like if Core one it would be a legitimate win [TS]
01:59:25 ◼ ► and of course the last I could have no complaint with red peak as the victor that's minus all thought some I'm looking [TS]
01:59:33 ◼ ► at it right now there is a there's a petition on Change dot org that needs fifty thousand supporters to I don't know [TS]
01:59:43 ◼ ► whatever the trying to reach on on on change dot org But they're trying to hit fifty thousand petitions enters to get [TS]
01:59:49 ◼ ► the red peak flag as an option for the fifth flag in the referendum I think they have exactly a snowball's chance in [TS]
01:59:57 ◼ ► hell of ever getting this on the referendum vote no matter how many people signed the petition [TS]
02:00:02 ◼ ► but I am still going to tweet it right after the pod cast because they have twenty four hours ago [TS]
02:00:07 ◼ ► and they are about three thousand signatures short so I would like to help them get to their goal if I possibly can [TS]
02:00:13 ◼ ► even though I don't think they even if they make it they're going to get on to the referendum [TS]
02:00:16 ◼ ► but they totally should be there. If if coterie wins would you vote for that over the existing use own flag. [TS]
02:00:25 ◼ ► I would vote for. Kaoru over the existing New Zealand flag without a doubt same with rhetoric. [TS]
02:00:31 ◼ ► Would you vote for either of the other three finalists if they make it through versus the existing is in fact which of [TS]
02:00:39 ◼ ► but you have of course not I get voted off I mean here's here's the thing I just don't think New Zealand flag is great [TS]
02:00:47 ◼ ► at being a flag again it is not distinct its conflicts too confusing with us trail you it's it's too much in the past [TS]
02:01:01 ◼ ► and if I'm ordering it I would go yes a Koran number one red peek Number two I would do just the black [TS]
02:01:09 ◼ ► and white silver fern as number three the black and blue silver fern with the Southern Cross next [TS]
02:01:19 ◼ ► and at the bottom of my list would be the major league baseball looking flag which is the red white [TS]
02:01:25 ◼ ► and blue silver fern with the with the Stars The problem with the ones combining the Stop the phone [TS]
02:01:36 ◼ ► and that is it's it's the one thing you fear a committee would do is compromise and have a bit of everything. [TS]
02:01:43 ◼ ► and like we were site isn't this great looking this is a great dive dive in Boulder CO great designs that I've been [TS]
02:01:50 ◼ ► really visionary that all sorts of cool stuff and then they sat down as a committee [TS]
02:01:55 ◼ ► and then made the committee decision made a big plan stupid compromise what's your order here Brady because on my list [TS]
02:02:01 ◼ ► implicitly the current New Zealand flag is at the bottom so how would you arrange things including the current New [TS]
02:02:07 ◼ ► Zealand flag you know this how splitting the vote to keep the existing fled conspiracy theory. [TS]
02:02:13 ◼ ► List just about worked on my file would file would almost hold off and say let's give another ten years [TS]
02:02:25 ◼ ► and that's get decent committee to know of it you can't do that Brady because that is like the alternative vote. [TS]
02:02:32 ◼ ► Where the whole campaign to split the vote was well if we if we change to Alternative Vote now than will never change [TS]
02:02:40 ◼ ► and that is not a valid argument if you can make progress now even if it's not all the progress you want you should [TS]
02:02:46 ◼ ► take it so you take a smiley face just to get rid of the existing flag I'm saying progress I don't think a smiley face [TS]
02:02:52 ◼ ► flag I well for having current you do since I finished my so I said it's almost worked on me OK. [TS]
02:03:00 ◼ ► I wouldn't take the car I'm sorry I think I think it's I carry I think it's I don't think it looks like a flag at the [TS]
02:03:05 ◼ ► works you don't have to like the flag so I wouldn't I won't take the car I would take the black [TS]
02:03:12 ◼ ► and white fair because it's the closest to what they should be doing right OK so the black [TS]
02:03:20 ◼ ► Bodhi narrative the current New Zealand are recruiting read pick let's include red peak I'm including repeat the [TS]
02:03:26 ◼ ► current New Zealand flag is my number two number two red Paik is my number three number three black and blue thing. [TS]
02:03:42 ◼ ► Yeah it's just it's so look like Major League Baseball to me but I just have set up for [TS]
02:03:50 ◼ ► when I say again I cannot believe they didn't get the plain black flag with the silver fern on it's it's amazing to me [TS]
02:03:57 ◼ ► and mazing the papal Geneve the people didn't even get say Ana you know I can understand why the people in charge of [TS]
02:04:15 ◼ ► but it is just a real shame that that's the way things of things have gone down because you you are totally right as I [TS]
02:04:21 ◼ ► said I think you said the first time we've ever discussed as you said it was the most obvious choice in the world [TS]
02:04:35 ◼ ► when the vote happens I see what happens immediately after this pod cast goes I was just I was just reading it looks [TS]
02:04:42 ◼ ► or by mail because it goes for a long time choosing between the for the first referendum goes from twenty November to [TS]
02:04:52 ◼ ► and then the Super Bowl next year between the two is the third to the twenty fourth of March. [TS]
02:05:00 ◼ ► We'll follow up then with live commentary but for now from maybe from Gray from the reunion swamp in [TS]
