Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2026/04/25

The Mint Chicks are a seminal slice of New Zealand’s indie music scene. Fronted by Ruban Nielson and his brother Kody, the noise rock and art punk band swept the Aotearoa Music Awards back in 2007 with their sophomore album “Crazy? Yes! Dumb? No!’. And now, twenty years on from its release, the album is being recognised at the Taites – receiving the IMNZ Classic Record. It’s one of New Zealand’s most respected prizes, and the type of honour Ruban is appreciating more as he grows older. “I used to

Mike Yardley: Bites and Sights in Grapevine, Texas

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2026/04/25

"The pint-sized Texan city of Grapevine certainly struck it lucky with the location Gods. Bounded by the sprawling immensity of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), its mighty aviation neighbour prevents the threat of urban sprawl swallowing up Grapevine into the metroplex. DFW, with its seven runways, encompasses a greater area of land than Manhattan Island. This plucky little city remains safeguarded in its own compact bubble, like a world apart, while offering transit passengers at DFW

Ruud Kleinpaste: Assisted Pollination

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2026/04/25

A couple of months ago our tunnel house got smacked by the wind. Young tomatoes were rescued from their spot and some of them survived in medium-sized pots. It was a matter of getting rid of that ancient, 8-meter-long tunnel house and replacing it with a new one – half the length but double the strength. The whole renovation took a few school holidays’ weeks, but it looked pretty darn good. I decided to plant the few tomatoes that were still struggling in the pots and have a go in the new tunnel

Facebook will lay off 10% of its 80,000 strong workforce in May, according to a report in Bloomberg. It will also cancel 6,000 open roles.

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2026/04/24

It would have to be among the single-most overdue law changes in New Zealand. I don’t know about you, but until the Anzac Amendment Bill came before Parliament this year, I didn’t realise that modern servicemen and women weren’t technically recognised on Anzac Day. Under the letter of the law, only those who served up to 1966 were officially commemorated. Obviously, that’s wrong. Although of course Anzac Day began as an occasion to commemorate those who served in the Gallipoli campaign —and it will

Anzac Day services have been held around the country, with thousands attending dawn services, parades, and commemorations. More than 8000 Kiwis arrived on the Gallipoli Peninsula on April 25, 1915, as the Allies unsuccessfully attempted to capture the Strait of Gallipoli from the Ottomans. By the campaign’s end in January 1916, 2779 had been killed – close to a sixth of those who had landed there. Today marks the 111th anniversary of the land invasion, commemorating the first significant military

"After taking in the retro charms of Route 66’s on a romp across northern Arizona, the desert was calling. I pointed the car south, driving through the achingly gorgeous Oak Creek Canyon route to Sedona, bound for Scottsdale. Towering red sandstone cliffs and an undulating quilt of ponderosa pine create a riveting scenic medley.

Her tender husband Daithí and two beloved daughters are regular subjects for her work, and in them she has found the safe home that she has always longed for. She tends not to talk about her past, and those that love her have learned to accept that the full story is too painful for her to disclose.
