😂 haggis, sausage and baked beans 🫘

Just drop the suggestions below 👇

What do you mean?

What’s in a bullet coffee exactly?

@@JamesLaughlinOfficial coffee generally gives you that caffine rush but it crashes in a quick burst. I use home made clarified butter, one spoonful for a large coffee. This ensures two things, you wont feel like eating anything for 4-5 hours while the energy is sustained for long duration. Helps with fasting until evening for me.

Thanks JDM. Marcus was one of the greats. What are your fave stoic books??

Thanks for your kindness by leaving a comment!!!

Ok cool! I’ll give that a crack. Do you think organic coffee is the way to go?

Why’s that Samuel?

@@JamesLaughlinOfficial it knew enough to go molten salt fueled but it used chloride salt's max temps (~750c) when proposing to use FliBe salt (~450c max). clean up is easy tho with no water anywhere near the core so meh, it helps when things don't explode..

Samuel - your IQ is significantly higher than mine.

Thanks Faith - what exactly do you mean that he’s a brainwashed liberal?

Hi Brian - I’d think Gary is suggesting that you ask people. And his whyOS is pretty powerful. How do you think people should be treated?

Which part makes no sense?

Thanks Jim 🙏 which part?

Thanks 🙏 I love the name of your channel!!

I’d say it’s good value!!

Are they really? ☕️

Any time! I’m delighted you enjoyed them. Where in the world are you based?

Have you read her book? 📕

She’s one of the best in the world

This is very very helpful!! Thank you Do you have any suggested reading on this?

Not a fan of JK? Who has been your fave PM ?

Well done! What was your motivation to stop?

What’s the one question you’d like me to ask him next time he’s on the show?

Melanie thanks so much for your comment. What did you think of his statement outside parliament yesterday?

🙏

Ken - I hugely appreciate you input and view point. What’s the one question you’d like me to ask him next time?

Great question! What do you think the answer is?

Clyde - good question. Do you think it would be better that we don’t have a relationship with China? 🇨🇳

What do you think his final viewpoint will be? It’s a very interesting time in NZs history

@JamesLaughlinOfficial I think he'll find he loses more voters to Act than he gains from Labour with this move, he'll probably settle somewhere between where the polls and the 6pm news tell him to on this particular issue!

You might be absolutely spot on!!

You’re onto it! If you go to the end of this interview you will see my 8 year old interview him.

Only a little bit. Could you drop some wisdom in the comments for me?

@JamesLaughlinOfficial yes

Go for it

Fair points Adrian. What's the one question you'd like me to ask him next time?

@JamesLaughlinOfficial Roads with tolls is ridiculous,we are not Australia, and we do not receive Australian wages.. We pay a dollar more at the petrol pump than Australians, yet our currency is 5-7 cents less.. We pay exported prices for products that fail exporting protocols or are made locally, e.g, lamb, cheese ,.. We pay the highest prices for the internet and entertainment platforms in the world. The cost of living is high because of the effects from covid and high inflation,but strategically, giving taxcuts for landlords and taxcuts in general during a time of fiscal spending was not the correct move. Also, knowing Luxon benefited directly from these poor ideas does not sit well with my moral compass.Cutting social programs that help working families and cutting school lunches was another cost that is not covered by the taxcuts given to working families. This is their 1st year in power, and they need to stop projecting their failures on to Labour.. You could have kept the public servants if you didn't do the taxcuts in my view.. More money in the economy helps small businesses stay a float, and so many small businesses are closing or feeling the pinch because money is a lot tighter due to high unemployment and their poor policies..

I need you at the next interview I think!!!

​@JamesLaughlinOfficial Someone asked me once ,what do you think we can do with our current system of capitalism to make it better, and I said "Capitalism and Socialism both have good and bad qualities for the majority of people, if we take the good qualities from both systems, I think we could make a beneficial system for everyone!" We already have incorporated socialism in our society e.g Public health systems,public housing, etc,and these help a majority of our citizens, but to have these social programs everyone will need to be taxed accordingly and that means the ultra wealthy as well.. The problem with Capitalism is the people with the most capital control the government and they make policies to benefit the wealthy with taxcuts . Then you don't have money for infrastructure, education, health systems etc Majority of the world has become an aging population because it is to hard for the working class to pay for the cost of living as well as 2 and a half children in our modern society ! ( 2 and a half children is needed to cover the parents and the half is just incase of an accident). New Zealand is a small fish compared to the world and we could sustain ourselves if necessary. Choosing the right leader who is not corrupted and truly wants to help the majority of kiwis is paramount!🤔

@JamesLaughlinOfficial Obviously, with socialism it won't work when you have a dictatorship because the only way to hold a leader accountable is the democratic process of voting . Getting back to having a leader who is not corrupt and actually cares about the majority is paramount,we have a leader of a declining great power who is known for corruption and sexual assault and has the power of all 3 bodies of government, judicial ,legislative and now executive. Quite interesting times. 🤔

May I ask what it is regarding?

Kia Ora Jessie - thanks for your message. I have invited Te Pati Māori leaders on the show too.

Thanks 🙏 When I interview him again, what question would you like me to ask him?

True!

Agreed

Possibly. What are you suggesting?

😂 the irony isn’t lost on me. 👏

Kris - I’d say there’s a lot of kiwis that would agree with you. Who do you think would be the best leader today?

@@JamesLaughlinOfficial i think David Seymour would do an O.K. job in todays world

Have you checked out the most recent interview I did with Seymour?

Many would agree with you. What question would you like me to ask him next time?

- How is Christopher Luxon different from the Prime Minister of New Zealand. - On the back of Snowden’s talk at Token Singapore, where he suggests intelligence powers being used for things that aren’t related to terrorism but just to exercise wider control of the public. It is obviously dangerous. Given NZ has no laws on monitoring and surveillance, how can NZers be sure that NZ’s intelligence agencies have the right judgement to use the enormous powers they have. They report directly to the PM, how does he ensure the right guardrails are put in place for them?

- What is the difference between Christopher Luxon and Christopher Luxon the PM? - On the back of Snowden’s Token 2023, where he talks about intelligence agencies potentially using their considerable powers for things completely unrelated to security or terror threats to exercise wider control over society. What is his view on ensuring there are sufficient guardrails in place for the GCSB and the NZSIS not misusing their powers against the NZ people for wider societal control and censorship? It’s funny I thought I’d written this comment earlier and it got deleted, so maybe this is an important question to ask 😅

Ken, thanks for that. Do you think Jacinda set some others up to fail?

What makes you feel he should back the bill?

​@@JamesLaughlinOfficial Because there is only one true race and that's the Human Race. Maori have settlements in regards to property rights which is fair. Otherwise we are one country one people regardless of ancestry. Anything else is racist.

Feedback accepted. It probably was a bit on the softer side. I tend to like to let people speak and not interject, however with politicians I can see why you feel I should be more direct.

Many would absolutely agree. Do you think there’s an EQ deficit or an integrity deficit?

Totally understand where you’re coming from. I’ve been told I should be more direct in interviews but I prefer to listen and learn. What question should I ask him next time?
