It's a sunny Wednesday morning and Rachel and Zoë are up in studio to greet the dawn and the fantastic line up of the day's show. First Rob Bollix brings another interesting Mind Trench where they learn the world's wonders from lima beans to 18th century headaches to chocolate milk. Then Pōneke based band Prison Choir pop up for a chat about their single, Tongue, and the band's future plans. Up next is Tim Batt with Mediabatt with all the latest media talk ranging from trucks to espionage. Finally, Amelia D'Screte regails the varied history of the word crazy and its fellow synonyms in Word Salad! Whakarongo mai!
Corey rides solo in this edition of Drive - we find out the secret meaning of Chur - and someone gets pissed that Corey wonders why President Clinton cheated on his wife.
The hatchback has been backed up to the carpark in the drizzle, it's time for the Swap Meet - this week celebrating fifty years of The Commodores "Machine Gun" and Stevie Wonder "Fulfillingness First Finale". Roll up, roll up, bargains galore.
Featuring: The Name Is Flaunt by Flaunt Edwards as the Play It Out album for the week
~
'By Your Side (Neptunes Remix)' by Sade, in response "I need some love", for the Emotional Request of the week (out to the numbers ending in 242)
Kirk James flying solo, playing a bunch of older favourites along with some new bits & pieces. Starting mellow for the 1st hour, mid-tempo jams in the 2nd hour, with the more up-tempo stuff in the 3rd hour. Finishing off by celebrating 50 years (to the day) since Funkadelic's 'Cosmic Slop' album came out, as well as one for Gwen Guthrie who would've been 73.
