Jonny chats to Suri about the book recommendation of the week. The latest book from Ta-Nehisi Coates titled The Message. The book contains three interweaving essays that investigate how fictional and factual narrations distort and expose our realities.
This week on From The Crate Cam picks out tracks from Black Star, The Specials and The Smashing Pumpkins' new album Aghori Mhori Mei. Thanks to Southbound Records.
Jonny chats to Green Party MP Steve Abel about the Toitu Te Tīriti Hīkoi that reached Pārameti yesterday and the constitutional changes posed by the Treaty Amendment Bill.
Just like humans, honey bees have a complex social structure controlled by a circadian rhythm. Guy Warman's research focuses on this clock at the heart of the colony structure, as without it, a colony cannot function.
The University of Auckland Chronobiology group uses cutting-edge technology to non-invasively study the bee clock and understand ways to manipulate it to improve the health and management of bees in Aotearoa.
