And the One New Zealand Stadium, also known as Te Kaha, continues to attract big events to Christchurch with the Wellington Phoenix men and women confirmed to play a double header next Waitangi Day.
Manaia StewartHOST
Soccer game to celebrate Waitangi Day.
Manaia StewartHOST
Beauty.
Manaia StewartHOST
Uh, coming up next, I've come up with a new test for, um, how you feel about someone, and I thought, let's test our relationships with one another and run that test on each other up next.
John HowardGUEST
And of course, the government's focus now and the opposition and all parties on the election.
John HowardGUEST
I'm not sure we've got the luxury to continue to ignore this because very shortly we'll go into the caretaker mode and nothing will happen in central government until after Waitangi Day.
John HowardGUEST
So we're going to gift four months of strategic planning away.
John HowardGUEST
As
RiggsHOST
Anyways.
GabzHOST
Okay, if you could get rid of one of the following public holidays, which one would it be? Labor Day, Matariki, Anzac Day, Waitangi Day.
GabzHOST
Please remember the significance of each of these public holidays.
GabzHOST
I said Labor Day because I actually don't know what we're celebrating.
GabzHOST
But in terms of significance, it doesn't really have one for me.
RiggsHOST
True, true, true.
RiggsHOST
I said I'm getting rid of Waitangi Day.
RiggsHOST
You know, it's just a sad reminder of how
Bronwyn RideoutHOST
And I think in November, the Wellington Skeptics in the Pub, as well as a couple of other Skeptics in the Pub meetups across New Zealand, we're going to be kind of doing our own little private celebration of the 40th anniversary of New Zealand skepticism, technically.
Bronwyn RideoutHOST
The 40th anniversary of New Zealand Skepticism happened on Waitangi Day, so we've completely missed that.
Bronwyn RideoutHOST
But we decided to kind of take the Friday the 13th, which will be the third Friday the 13th of the year.
Bronwyn RideoutHOST
And yeah, we got some things that we intend to plan.
DannyAUDIENCE
Getting rid of it with the government we've got and the next one, and maybe the next one after that, I think is a wee bit impossible.
DannyAUDIENCE
But, I mean, you could have, I texted and said you could have a debt day where instead of it being like Waitangi Day or anything like that, everybody's wages for the day goes to the government just to pay off the debt.
DannyAUDIENCE
So CEOs earning $5 million, you divide that by 365 straight after tax day, that gets added onto their tax.
DannyAUDIENCE
If you're a super annuitant, same thing, 365 days and just one day of the year, your money goes straight to the tax man and goes straight on debt.
Becky BHOST
The biggest, potentially the biggest electronic headline Aotearoa has ever seen.

Becky BHOST
We didn't even know we were going to interview him until the day before.
ShayPANELIST
There's no taxis, there's no bars, there's no supermarkets, nothing.
ShayPANELIST
It's like Waitangi Day for the Indonesians.
RandyHOST
ah yeah it's always the touristy oh yeah that's but because they're aren't they cracking down on influencers over in um in bali as well
ShayPANELIST

Becky BHOST
Oh, my God.
Becky BHOST
It is on Waitangi Day, Tāmaki Makaurau, Auckland to Maine.
Becky BHOST
It's going to be incredible.
Becky BHOST
If you went to worship there last year.
John HowardGUEST
And that'll find us right at the point where everybody takes their summer holiday again.
John HowardGUEST
So we get this, what I call, holiday from reality all the way through until after Waitangi Day, which brings us to the second anniversary of the DCP.
John HowardGUEST
Two years in, what have we delivered? Two years in, are we able to actually show hard milestones? And without a minister who can lead and drive the accountability, and Minister Goldsmith's got, as you've said, a very heavy weight in front of him to lift all of that.
John HowardGUEST
And he'll be relying on his chief executives.
