Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Politics with Natalia Albert
Q: Where do you think Labour stands at this point in time?
Labour appears poll-leading but lacking a clear, communicated plan or strategy, which undermines voter confidence and readiness to commit to policy.
The mysterious broadcast which started after the first US and Israeli strikes on Iran
Q: And Tony, it's still being used. Can you just tell us a bit about how this method of transmitting information actually works?
Tony explains that a powerful transmitter broadcasts a string of numbers which can be read aloud, morse-coded, or digital, and that the message is encrypted so only those with the key can decipher it; the system is robust because it doesn't rely on fragile digital infrastructure.
Call for free public transport to ease fuel demand
Q: So, first, for example, here, what is the problem that you are trying to help solve?
The problem is that we are doing virtually nothing to preserve or slow down the demand for petrol and diesel, so we can preserve supplies on shore and ensure critical services have affordable fuel.
The Weekend: Phyllis Symons grave visit at Karori Cemetery
Q: Tell me a bit about this. I mean, it's a really sad story, this one. What do we know about Phyllis?
Julie Kennedy explains that Phyllis was a young woman who became pregnant by George Coates, leading to a tragic murder. There is limited information about her life due to the era, but the case is framed by the circumstances of the time and the social stigma surrounding it.
The Secret Behind 30 Years of Theatre Success
Q: How do you approach portraying a child on stage without falling into clichés?
We rely on illusion, shadows, and the theater's detritus to evoke a child's presence, letting the audience project their own image of the child while ensuring the performance remains authentic and respectful.
