There's a lot Andrew Coster needs to be held to account for, given his role in the McSkimmings affair. But Lara Greaves mentions his resignation from his role as the Secretary for Social Investment and chief executive of the Social Investment Agency;
Coster could have just passed the buck and stayed on the gravy train. As politicians on the right have routinely done over the last couple of decades. So credit where credit is due.
"Chris Bishop, minister in charge of these things now, he's in this RNZ article saying, 'oh no don't be concerned, it's all set to just measure recent use'."

Which as explained in this podcast, in detail, is 100% bollox.
I'm not sure which RNZ article Fowlie means. But assuming this is true, either Bishop (tobacco industry lobbyist) doesn't know what he's talking about, or he's blatantly lying to the public.
"Advertising executives aren't 'creatives'. It's like calling landlords architects."

#HatTip to Freak the Sheep for exposing me to this righteous spoken word track.

Dominic is also known as Tourettes, maybe that track is here somewhere? Have a dig ...
Chris Fowlie discusses the use of hemp to replace the plastic component of wool carpet, and weed mats in the Manawatu Gorge;

I wonder if hemp could be used to make biodegradable hay bail wrap for farms, to replace the huge amount of soft plastic they use every year.
This week in the news, Chris covers more reporting on the need to revisit drug legislation, and an open letter to Green Party MP Chloe Swarbrick by a 1ZB host that argues for recreational-use cannabis legalisation, and NYC voters elect pr-reform candidate Zohran Mamdani in the mayoral race. Thanks to The Hemp Store!
"If you think about how quickly AI has ... taken over society, the advent of email took about 20 years to ... become what it is. Smartphones about 10 years. AI has ... ballooned in 2 years time."

This comes across like timewave zero woo to me.

"A large federally-funded study coming out of [US]America, published in Nature, 'marijuana users have enhanced cognitive abilities' ... [they] analysed brain imaging and cognitive data, from 37929 people. The cannabis consumers consistently outperformed the non-users in the cognitive tests. They had brain network characteristics typically associated with younger brains."

Very disappointed to hear True School crew playing blatantly homophobic and transphobic rap on bFM, even as a listener request;

Where the Hood At by DMX, starts about 1:48:00. Followed by an announcement from the hosts, but not a single comments on how badly DMX's anti-queer mouthbreathing has aged;
"... things keep getting kicked down the road ... if we don't achieve big action, we have a terrible crisis coming."

He's talking about action on climate change and renewable energy in particular here, but this sums up our political situation in general. Extraction-as-usual can not continue much longer without risking total social breakdown. Just look at what's happening in the US.
