    Season 4 Episode 19: Broasis

    Hello!

    The second part recorded (first) on September 7th, due to somebody going on holiday.

    Music! It's all here and it's loud. From the surprise reunification of Oasis to several stunning local shows, music is a happening thing. We are the first people in history to ask "How can a city be dying but its music scene be so good?"

    Works I think we cited and if we didn't we should have:

    Lucy Patané - HIJA DE RUTA

    Ebony Lamb

    Michael Logie

    Alphabethead

    Dateline - It's All Downhill From Here

    Castlecliff Lights

    OdESSA

    Season 4 Episode 18: Method in the Madness

    Hello!

    Part one of a two-part session recorded September 7th. 

    The DNC has wrapped and now we watch the polls. The part played in art by the unsexy drugs. Auckland's true crime phenomenon. And the dark Russian interference money flooding the podcast world.

    Season 4 Episode 16: Chunnel Vision

    Hello,

David Seymour's social media habits make him at best a total weirdo worthy of scorn. And in bonus celebrity news the Mazda Demio stuns in new road rage video.

    Season 4 Episode 15: Shake Shake Shake

    Hi,

    How about a few drinks? NZ Police and their alcohol policy goals. UK politics gets milky. Killer whales at the party. We've had a budget. Our bright collective future. And Trump guilty.

    Season 4 Episode 13: Eggs

    Hi,

    Long weekend; long episode.

    The rolling atrocity and spiritual debt of the Gaza genocide. Chocolate eggs made it through the Red Sea after all. Sydney Sweeney as the mysterious lightning rod of all discourse. And the government embarks on brutal mathematics to enact the methods they were elected on, even though the purposes may have slipped out of reach.

    Bumper music;

    Season 4 Episode 12: Cheque Yourself Before You Rent Yourself

    Hi!

    Prime Minister Chris Luxon gets in hot water by smashing the Free Money button in his office, and has since promised not to do it again. Charging the country to rent his own apartment off himself is prima facie obscene, but could just be the least corrupting things about having multi-millionaire landlord rule makers.

    Meanwhile the sexy working class are putting in strenuous, trans-tasman scuba diving shifts at the cocaine retrieval factory in order to get their daily bread. And the imminent demise of Newshub looks set to change the New Zealand news media landscape forevs.

    There's some movies out, some music out, and something in Glasgow that is as yet uncategorisable...

    Season 4 Episode 10: Trespassed and Present

    Hello,

    Chaos as hip hop and municipal sanitation issues collide in Lower Hutt. The grand tradition of New Years Eve munted rambling collides with the Prime Minister. Dumbass racists collide with the official status of languages. We both collide with Saltburn. One year collides with another, cheer and goodwill collide with all.
