Henry BlakemanHOST
So how much money are you willing to spend to buy BNZ back?
Winston PetersGUEST
Well, when Sam Stubbs of Kiwi Bank fame and KiwiSaver fame, when Sam Stubbs made that comment just five years ago, everybody said it would cost about $10 billion.
Winston PetersGUEST
Now they're saying ridiculous things like it could cost $25, $30 billion.
Winston PetersGUEST
That is deceit of the worst sort.

Ben BoyceHOST
There's, uh, Kiwibank TV commercials.
Ben BoyceHOST
You may have seen, uh, posters and pictures around of, uh, a sheep, a sort of green sheep that they've got.
Ben BoyceHOST
They called it Buck in the ad, which makes, I guess makes sense, 'cause the bank and the money and stuff.
Megan PapasHOST
Yeah.
Ben BoyceHOST
Yeah, ph- physical connection.
Ben BoyceHOST
And then Kiwibank tried to block that sort of stuff, and I think it steamrolled and become worse.

'Cause-
Jane Bowden-DobsonGUEST
Oh, I know.

StormHOST
Mm.

Kiwi Bank mascot Buck the Sheep featured on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver after the bank's copyright, uh, takedowns of viral memes backfired-

Pam FordGUEST
So we really are punching above our weight, which goes to the whole, again, the system that you have here, the universities, the venture capitalists, the support from the banks.
Pam FordGUEST
We've got Kiwi Bank and Forsyth Barr sponsoring this week and, you know, there's a real system that enables these startups to, to thrive.
Mike HoskingHOST
Fantastic.
Mike HoskingHOST
Well, have a good week.
Pam FordGUEST
So if you think about startups, there's, uh, 1,400 of the 2,400 startups are based in Auckland, so that's close to 60%, so we really are punching above our weight, which goes to the whole, again, the system that you have here, the universities, the venture capitalists, the support from the banks.

MagentaHOST
... getting away from our sheep shagger, like we've been known for it for so long.
Pat BrittendenHOST
Well, I mean, Kiwibank should've thought of that before they made a fuckable sheep.
Pat BrittendenHOST
I'm just saying.
MagentaHOST
Oh.
MagentaHOST
This is our public- this is our publicly owned bank too.
MagentaHOST
You know what? This is nationalism.

MagentaHOST
I mean, hey-
Sin HowardHOST

Brooke GibsonHOST
Talking of smoking the silly stuff, someone down the local ad agency that looks after KiwiBank has been doing just that, I reckon.
Sin HowardHOST
Yeah, big time.
Brooke GibsonHOST
KiwiBank rolled out a new, well, I think you'd call it a mascot, an animated sheep, but not just any sheep.
Brooke GibsonHOST
One with giant seductive eyes, curls that bounce off its soft, perfectly formed ears, and a rump steak to die for.
Brooke GibsonHOST
This horny hogget has the KiwiBank social media team working overtime-
Sin HowardHOST

... censoring and deleting comments from people confessing their raging hard-ons or bisexual awakenings to the lusty lamb.
