Max Harris speaks to Rachel about Mark Mitchell’s prison conference, the government considering removing same day enrolment on election day and discussions about tikanga being taught to law students.
💚 Another NZ music week show where we have been blessed with some fantastic new releases while also uncovering some older gems.
We start off gently, then pick things up with a Rockers Hif-Fi stomper. We continue to cycle through the genre windmill before landing on our Obtuse Tune Of The Week which is a deep, dark, and captivating 2019 collaboration betwee Klinical and Fre4knc.
We sneak in some Jai Paul and Burial for out atmospheric synth loving divas. And land on a live recording from Joe Armon-Jones and Mala for Live Before the Entertainment Guide. The final hour sees a plethora of new release, a dub section before ending on a tribute to acknowledge the passing of Herbs and all round legend of Aotearoa music, Willie Hona.
Thank you to all of you who came out and gave your energy to Fancy New Band last Friday at the tuning fork, that was very much appreciated.
See you all same time next week. With love!

For our weekly catch-up with Deputy Labour Leader Carmel Sepuloni Caeden asks about Celebrity Treasure Island and the potential end of election day voter enrolment.
They also speak with Councillor Lotu Fuli about the latest Auckland port announcement and if Auckland Council will call for a ceasefire in Gaza.
And they speak with Victoria University’s Dr Lara Greaves about the proposal from the Government to end election day voter enrolment.
Jasmine speaks to Co-curator of the Auckland Writer’s Festival Michael Bennett about the incorporation of Te Ao Māori and language revitalisation for this year’s programme
And this week is Rape Awareness Week, so she speaks to Imogen Stone, Acting Programme lead at HELP Auckland’s Dear Em Programme, about how Kiwis engage with this initiative to support sexual violence prevention in Aotearoa
On Wednesday Labour’s Carmel Sepuloni dominated political headlines with news that she is believed to be a contestant on this year's season of Celebrity Treasure Island.
The last MP to compete on a reality TV show was David Seymour, who competed on Dancing with the Stars in 2018. This appearance resulted in a now infamous video of Seymour twerking in 80s getup.
Last years Celebrity Treasure Island also drew headlines for including famous political figures, notably Tame Iti.
Political news this week has also included an announcement from Paul Goldsmith that the Government is looking at stopping election day voter enrolment due to the administrative burden.
Caeden asked about both these topics for our weekly catch-up with Carmel Sepuloni. They started by asking if she would appear in Celebrity Treasure Island.
