Starting point is 00:00:00 New Zealand Post will no longer be shipping to the US. You'll be able to get your packages and parcels there through other people that will take it that way, but not just people at the airport. I was going to say, do we all just wait at the airport and go, where are you going, mate? I'll see family and San Fran. I'll hear you drop this off. I feel like the airport's frown upon that if you take packages. So is this to Trump's tariffs?
Starting point is 00:00:20 I think it is to do with tariffs, yeah, as well. So it's not economically viable anymore. You send stuff to America, don't you? Yeah, sometimes. The family over there, yeah. But now it's a good way to get out of it. Just be like, oh. Tariffs.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Yeah. Not shipping anymore. Dodge Christmas, baby. That's right. Yeah. I was lucky enough over the weekend to go to a premiere of Cirque de Soleil, Corto, which is coming to New Zealand. Really good.
Starting point is 00:00:47 We know those shows are amazing. People do things that they really shouldn't be able to do with their bodies. Incredible to watch. It's got magnificent bodies, the circus people, don't they? Oh, my God. There was one. Pictorials. Like, pole dances are incredible anyway,
Starting point is 00:01:00 but there was one where the pole, like, floated up in the air. And, you know, they never, they don't have any attachments or anything. So she's pole dancing on a floating pole hanging on just by, like, her knee. It was just amazing. Yeah, it is for a while. Every time I hear Cirque de Soleil, I remember that terrible story with Guy Williams, remember? Oh, yeah. We sent Guy Williams along when we're doing a TV show to film a piece of content at Cirque de Soleil and he came back to the office.
Starting point is 00:01:24 And we're like, how'd that go, mate? Not good. Not good. I kicked a circus perform in the face Yeah Spinning around Yeah And he like kicked this poor French bloke in the face

Starting point is 00:02:11 You could have done that, yeah. So, you know me, I wore my most, like, inappropriate heels. And when we got there, I'd expect the whole weekend being late to everything, honestly. It was dark. They'd already turn the lights out, and they were saying that it's going to start in two minutes. So we were like, okay, hurry. and so lucky to be there and lucky that they gave us tickets right up the front so we had to go down in front of everyone and you know in dark theatres they often light the stairways so there's a little strip of glow on the dark stuff so you can see where the stairs are

I'm walking down. There's packed crowd everywhere around me and I misjudge a step. Boom. Did you collapse? I fell hard. Oh, the old lady's had a fall. The old lady had a fall. The old lady had a fall at a restaurant the other month. I was wearing a short dress and I definitely, it definitely flipped up over my back. Oh no. I mean, the thing, the good thing about being at a circus is they're like, oh, maybe this is part of the show. Yeah, they do have people that are at a I see that lady, she was the greatest act of the night.
Starting point is 00:03:29 I was with bloody Tony Street, who was in more appropriate shoes, and she'd like left me for dead. She'd left me for dead.
