This week Sam takes a look at Iggy Pop's second solo album "Lust for Life." Released in 1977, "Lust for Life" was recorded with David Bowie in Berlin and is considered by many to be Iggy's best solo record.
It's a solo mission for real this morning. Speaking of which, Solo: A Star Wars Story was a great success and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief! There's a bit of wonder, a bit of adventure, some endearing character dynamics, and a whole lot of nostalgia. Something for everyone! You all owe an apology to Ehrenreich, you fiends.

Stand Up Stand Out is an annual competition that nurtures and showcases music and dance talent from secondary schools across Auckland. The winners were announced last weekend at a sold-out Auckland Town Hall, showcasing 26 diverse acts across five categories: dance, solo instrumental, group vocal, solo vocal and bands. To hear about the competition, its unique beginnings and what it means for Rangatahi, Frances caught up with Gene Rivers, Auckland Council Arts and Culture Programmer.
The current benefits system is from a different time, harking back to times of World Wars and the Great Depression. The most common recipient of the benefit is no longer a male Pākehā war hero, but rather solo mothers, and disproportionately mothers who are Māori, Pasifika or have disabilities. These women are subjected to intrusive investigations, probing questions, regulations that keep them from seeking work, and policies that keep them from pursuing meaningful relationships.
95bFM reporter Rachel Simpson spoke to Georgie Craw, executive officer of Child Poverty Action Group. The group recently released a briefing paper calling for the government to take urgent action on the benefits system, which was delivered to the Prime Minister’s electoral office, along with a petition signed by 8,000 people.
