3,000 people have signed a petition calling for the government to stop handing out oil and gas permits for onshore drilling in Taranaki.
The government is still handing out block offers on the 1565.5 km² onshore Taranaki land which allows drilling.
Caeden spoke to Urs Signer, member of Climate Justice Taranaki, on the support for the ban, the impact of drilling on communities in Taranaki, and why a ban is so important in the context of the current climate crisis.
Te Pāti Māori have announced their tax policy for the election, seeking to modify income tax brackets to reduce the tax burden on low- and middle-income whānau, introduce a wealth tax, raise the company tax rate, introduce a land banking and vacant house tax, and crack down on tax evasion.
Hanna spoke to Te Pāti Māori's Takutai Kemp about the proposed reforms, the social policies they could fund, enforcement, the critique that progressive tax reform would hurt the economy, and coalition negotiations when Labour is ruling out new taxes.
It's a special time to catch up with Peter Lineham who joins us in the studio, and interviews the one and only David Farrier! They discuss the role of the church in mainstream New Zealand society and the fact we love to emulate the U.S. a bit too much.

The midpoint in Stevie Wonder's dream run of seventies electric soul LPs Innervisions marked 50 years this week, so we spin a few lesser-known favourites from it. Starting with 1972's "Music of My Mind" and "Talking Book" Lps, Innervisions (1973), and "Fulfillingness' First Finale" (1974), and culminating in 1976's mammoth "Songs in the key of Life", Stevie's albums reforged soul music into a new vehicle for his fresh brand of passionate, funky and endlessly inventive music, featuring the top-flight cast of musicians and backed by the otherworldly sounds of TONTO. Don't you worry 'bout a thing, turn it up!
