Victoria and Penelope have been chosen to lead the NZ delegation of the United States Leadership Tour - a month long trip facilitated by United Nations Youth NZ to the Harvard National Model United Nations conference in Boston. Simulating the activites of the real UN, the conference brings together 3000 students from around the globe to deal with global issues via a number of roles. With both women already boasting an impressive uni transcript, what does it mean for them to now be representing NZ concerns at an international level?
Apparently the North Pole is on the move, according to Rob's sources. The magnetic pole is moving, a lot, away from Canada but Rob wants to know if anyone can explain the world magnetic model really is, but not with long wheelbarrow words, pls.
Penelope is talking about some of the models that are taking the face of Gucci this season. Zumi Rosow, Dani Miller and Amy Taylor are some of the amazing ladies who are bringing their energy into the Fashun world. And as a long time fan of punk, Penelope Noir is pretty stoked about it.
Calling all volunteers, this one's for you! Amanda and Tom have started the Auckland Library of Tools and are looking for some more helping hands. From hammers to lawn-mowers, this community collective, nestled in Kingsland, works as a subscription model for everything you need to recycle, repair and build your belongings. Rachel asks Amanda and Tom why they started this initiative?
Jenna's got a weird one (in a very great way), Bunny by Mona Awad, a novel that's very relatable for the high-school-female-friendship model. Jenna didn't read the back before she dived into this one, and she was very pleasantly surprised. A black-comedy, that takes a dark twist and apparently will hook you from the beginning. Nice one.
Modelled off the most epic of group hugs, the penguin huddle, Universal Harmony is a journey into the deep space between all of us and aims to connect each listener in a sort of audio penguin-like huddle through conscious music that spans both time and genre. Featuring the Sound of Sydney and Higher Porpoise segments. Enjoy!

A soundtrack for creative minds and people who spread gratitude in a confronting way.
We take a look at innovation in agriculture to assess our agricultural future, and see different models for agriculture and innovation that could both be core to the next term and government. A huge thank you to both Mark Ross of Agcarm and Sarah Smuts-Kennedy of For The Love of Bees for providing their ideas and information to us.
Join Christina and AUT Professor Allan Blackman for your weekly fix of Dear Science! This week, Allan and Christina discussed the imperial system vs the metric system (and got a bit carried away!). They also discussed a super reactive chemical in the atmosphere that could alter how we do climate modelling, and a silk tag that could tell you whether your medications are safe or dodgy.
