Sons of a Good Keen Man by The Crump Brothers. Barry had six kids (that we know about all sons, and they met up a few years ago and then decided to write this book about their famous father and how their experience of him was light years away from the public persona that the rest of us got to see.

This week we are going to talk about why desk jobs might be just as exhausting as manual labour jobs! Published this week in the journal Current Biology. the research looked into why we can come home from the office feeling exhausted even though all we have done is sit at a desk all day. The study split 40 volunteers into two groups and gave them thinking tasks to do for 6.5 hours straight with only two 10 minute breaks in that period. One group was given easy thinking tasks, the other group

The music industry seems all glamour, right? The fans, the money, the fame. Behind the scenes though there is a different story. An industry that has tolerated addiction and exploitation all in the name of entertainment. A new book has gone behind the scenes, to explore these failings, with first-hand access to artists like the Foo Fighters, Green Day, Pearl Jam, Kings of Leon. The book is called Bodies: Life and Death in Music. It has been touted as one of the must-read books of 2022. The author

Speaking at the Tourism Export Council of New Zealand annual conference in Nelson on Wednesday, Minister of Tourism Stuart Nash was at it again, probably getting more headlines in international papers than he did here in New Zealand with his vision for New Zealand to be one of the top three aspirational destinations for the “world’s most discerning travellers”. In other words, New Zealand is going to market itself to what Nash calls “high quality” big spenders – or as Nash said in 2020 - wealthy

Tomorrow, & Tomorrow, & Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. I loved this and didn’t particularly expect to as it’s about two kids who meet as children on the ward in a hospital where they play video games together; and then meet up 8 years later when Sam is at Harvard and Sadie’s at MIT and together produce a game which is a massive global hit. Gaming is so not my thing but the guts of this story is actually about managing relationships when you’re young and smart and successful, with work at the
