Damon Krukowski and Damien Vaughan on Spotify injustice

The Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin ·

2022/02/12

Spotify has been all over the headlines in the last couple of weeks, but looking past Joe Rogan and Neil Young there is talk of far wider injustice from the streaming service. In the UK an inquiry into music streaming is looking at claims of musicians getting a raw deal.

UMAW organiser, Damon Krukowski and CEO of Recorded Music NZ, Damien Vaughan joined

2022/02/12

During a week in which frustration at the government’s handling of various aspects of the Covid response have been playing out very publically, New Zealand quietly reached a milestone – 10 million Covid vaccines had been administered by 2pm on Friday afternoon. This is something worth celebrating. It wasn’t long ago when this seemed like an impossible milestone to achieve, given how slowly the Labour government went about purchasing and administering vaccines. It was just over 5 months ago when the

Mike’s website – goodfromscratch.co.nz Whilst I was driving this week, I tuned into Newstalk and they were talking about how home-kill meat has never been more popular.

So today we have a lamb recipe, but this could

I don't think any video can top this one by Professor Ronen Segev – lead author on this weeks research. This is hilarious... What would you think if you saw a goldfish driving a mini fish tank down a street – odd to say the least, something of one of those prank shows – but in fact you would be observing a study to see whether goldfish can perform navigational tasks outside their normal environment. These are clever goldfish! I am excited to share a new study led by Shachar Givon &

I saw something quite extraordinary last weekend, and I am keen to hear if you’ve seen the same thing, and your thoughts on it. So, I took a week off and spent it with my family at Omori, at the southern end of Lake Taupo. It’s a glorious little settlement, and thanks to its size and limited street lights, a perfect place to sit outside at night and enjoy the stars. Even the teenagers come outside and ‘ooh’ and ‘ahh’. Friends joined us last weekend, and one night asked if we’d seen one of Elon
