FLAVA BREAKFAST BEST BITS: Azura's living her best life!

SPEAKER_1 (0:00)

Let's go. The Flava Breakfast Podcast.

Azura (0:03)

Kia ora, kia ora. This is like the catch up, because this is the podcast from today.

Charlie (0:10)

Man, honestly, it's a happy Range Rover day for Azura. That smile, bro, I just wanna...

Azura (0:16)

What, what?

Charlie (0:17)

I don't know.

Azura (0:18)

Yeah, exactly, exactly. I'll tell you what, he should, I have been so happy all day. I am holding like the keys to his Range Rover, which I'm gonna have for a week. I've got a date planned tomorrow, which you'll hear more about. Oh man, Charlie tries to change the bed. Man, he starts to add all these T's and C's. That's what you're about to catch up on. The absolute atrocity of this man.

Charlie (0:41)

Bro, but one thing I gotta, one thing that's come to mind with Aotearoa, with New Zealand, is that we don't take anything serious. We're the elections on, and this is us trying to find out who's gonna be the new Prime Minister. Run our country. And while we're watching this, and everybody's on the edge of their seats, huh? I see all these- Sausage rolls!

Azura (1:02)

I see all these random ass things.

Charlie (1:03)

What the hell is going on here?

Azura (1:05)

Only in New Zealand. And lastly, the great debate. Yes, this is where, well, we ask a question, and we get your thoughts on it. But then you'll also hear an amazing poem, written by Charlie after the great debate.

Because it's all about Tuosamo. We've got to talk about it. New Zealand, you are so damn un-serious.

Charlie (1:29)

What's been happening? What's wrong?

Azura (1:31)

Well, there's nothing wrong. It's actually, it's kind of funny to be honest with you, because obviously the election happened over the weekend, and oh my gosh, we've got to wait a month for all the other votes to be, you know, the special votes to be counted.

They're going to do some recounts. And that's all before they start to form coalitions. And basically what that means, Charlie, is certain parties will team up together. They'll join forces. And then, you know, depending on how many seats this party got and how many seats this party got, what happens when you put them together? You have a new number. The majority. Yes, thank you very much. So they need to do all of that. Look, we were not here to talk about the nitty gritty of politics because everyone's talking about it. But what I want to talk about is how unserious we are here in Aotearoa, New Zealand because I watched the broadcast.

We were switching from channel to channel. We had a little election bingo at my weekend away with the girls. Tell me why they did a cut to a journalist who was talking about the sausage roll ratio.

SPEAKER_4 (2:42)

But I just want you to look at the ratio of sausage roll to other nibbles. Just get a good look at that.

Azura (2:49)

Get a good look at that.

Charlie (2:50)

So here we are, fellow citizens of Aotearoa. You know what I mean? On the edge of our seats, because I could tell people were quite frustrated. Like, I mean, it was going back and forth, national, labour, national, labour.

And you see it cutting into some sausage rolls and people talking about food.

SPEAKER_1 (3:12)

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

Charlie (3:13)

What the hell is going on?

Azura (3:14)

That's not the only thing. During the live broadcast, they also did a cut to a journalist who was positioned, located in a Dunedin flat.

And in the-

SPEAKER_1 (3:27)

Dunedin flat?

Azura (3:28)

Yep, a dirty Dunedin flat. And all of these uni students, they're sending it. There's a funnel laying on the ground, in the background. The bench is dirty and disgusting. They had this thing of punch.

Charlie (3:41)

And this is like during the live broadcast.

Azura (3:44)

This is during our election broadcast. Another one was a spouse of a party leader delivering a snack tray to journalists standing outside of their house.

Charlie (3:58)

Yeah, you are right. It's giving like, we're not taking this serious, bro.

SPEAKER_5 (4:03)

They just gotta fill time. They've just gotta fill time.

Azura (4:06)

I think it just says a lot about us as Kiwi, because my flatmate's from Ireland, and my other one's from the UK.

Charlie (4:12)

What do they do in between, like kill time?

Azura (4:15)

It's just more professional than a bumpy, jumpy cameraman following someone through a Dunedin flat.

Charlie (4:21)

Yeah, more professional than talking about sausage rolls, going through a Dunedin flat.
