This week on the Wire we're recapping some of the best news pieces the 95bFM news team has produced this year with our Best of 2021 shows. So, today Louis Macalister and Charlie Parker bring you the best of the Monday Wire.
Louis recaps his conversations with the Green Party’s Teanau Tuiono about their concerns over Rocket Lab, University of Mainz’s Dr Martine Robbeets about the origins of transeurasian languages, BBC and Guardian journalist Neha Wadekar on conflict in Mozambique, truck driver Wayne Hill about work, pay, and safety conditions, and University of Auckland’s Dr Lisa Reynolds on research into LSD micro-dosing for cancer patients.
Charlie goes over and updates us on her interviews with Child Poverty Action Group's Janet McAllister on the role of foodbanks, University of Auckland’s Dr Joel Rindelaub about lasting firework effects, and Shine’s Policy Advisor Holly Carrington about family violence.
This week Theo is joined by Teresa Peters, discussing her work ECHOES, which has won the premier award at the 2021 Portage Ceramic awards, and Chelsea Nichols and Aaron Lister, talking about their instagram-based project Curator of Screams.

Kirsten is back in the studio! Yah live even, talking to friends and Border Radio followers. Lots of new releases, and Ani Difranco's "Revolutionary Love" which is a 2021 release although the single came out a bit earlier. Wonderful music all night. And a bit of dicussion about Robert Plant and Alison Kraus covering Lucinda Williams, it's a risky business.
Blind Mango Chutney gets to stretch his legs in the studio to bring you his last show of 2021. He brings you the weather first, followed by some Christmas cheer, African jams and silky vocals. Then he taps out on a Brazilian classic.
