We spoke to good ol’ Garry Moore this morning, the God Father of our fair city because we really wanted to hear his opinion ob Bob Parker’s media attention during the quake aftermath. There was a report which was amended, written by the senior civil defense manager at ECan that said Bob’s media presence contributed to a crisis situation being depicted by the media. ALSO we wanted to find out a little bit more about the ‘co...

Next up was a Dr. of psychology - William Helton - who’s been looking into dogs of all shapes and sizes and comparing their intelligence, or at least working out whether size has anything to do with the ability to be trained. It’s kind of hard to explain, so have a listen

First up with the Professor, John Blunt who has been involved in researching sponge growing off the coast of Kaikoura, that has remarkable properties that could be used in the fight against cancer.

We also had a really interesting talk with a gentleman by the name of Gordon McKenzie. Now he belongs to a group called The Aetherius Society, who for lack of a better explanation (and everybody basically wants to know) believe in aliens. Oh there’s much more to it than just that, so you should definitely check out the link to their website, but one thing in particular which caught our interest was their walk up Mt. Wakefi...

we had a yarn with a fella by the name of Tony who works at Place Makers in Motueka - the recently awarded ‘Best Town in New Zealand’. We wanted to speak with someone who wasn’t involved with promotions or any marketing to do with the town, someone who was a salt of the earth kind of person who lived and worked there and knew what went into make the place so special. And here he is, ladies and gentlemen. Tony.

So the highlight of the show (apart from a visit from Spanky) this morning was a chat with Daisy from Kitty Daisy and Lewis - a family band from the UK who are playing at Al’s Bar on the 14th Jan. Check them out, they’ve got a great old school rock n roll feel and really get your foot tapping. Here’s an interview with Daisy, she’s the eldest of her siblings.

Last time we spoke he was looking into a restless ghost at the Jailhouse Hostel in Addington and now Anton’s got a brand new team with flash new gear and is ready to bust some ghosts.

Also on the show this morning, we spoke with Barb Warren who looks after the Ohoka Farmer’s Market across the Waimak there. She’s recruiting more stall holders, in particular wanting students to give it a go - you just need produce or items that you have made yourself. There are a couple of gaps in the market - specialist meats is one in particular, or perhaps crystal healing? If you are interested then give Barb a yell th...

Right, on the show this morning Spanky had a chat with his dear Dad (who I had the pleasure of meeting face to face last week when he dropped off some amazing organic lamb). We talk with Spanky’s Dad usually when we’re changing seasons, and especially now we’re heading towards a formidable drought. Never quite sure why this segment was called Let’s Get Agro, sure there’s a good pun there, but Mr. Moore doesn’t sound like a...

Also on the show this morning, we had a chat with the CEO of that powerful organisation NZ Pork about the abolition of sow crates - or at least the phasing out of them, with the plan to have them all gone by 2015. Sam McIvor is the man, he gave us NZ Pork’s feeling about the move which is all well and good, but then just at the end of the interview he very subtly (as subtle as a punch in the face) segued into informing us ...
