  • Morning SHow with Ms Gen X Monday 23-3-26

    Join me for some incredible interviews - first with Damian Gordon, RIngleader for Circus Aotearoa for 13 years who's bring the NZ Juggling and Circus Festival to town this weekend; so much happening from workshops, to family shows and an free event at Papahua on Saturday at 3pm. Then I interviewed Kevin, Frankie and Harry from the Raglan Volunteer Coastguards. Everything from what they do, how can we support them, how to get involved and some stories of what can and does go wrong if you-re not prepared for the ever changing west coast!

  • Friday Morning Show with Ms Gen X 20-3-2026

    Thanks for tuning in today for news, weather, local and national news and a bit of what's happening globally - nothing political just interesting stuff! What's happened on this day in history was particularly interesting for NZ but some good snippets globally too. I interview Julia from Neighbours Aotearoa who's platforming a fantastic initiative about Neighbours across the land. It starts with a conversation and simple question - what does neighbourhood mean to you? Find out more and how you can get involved. And last but not least my playlist for tunes is based around numbers - any numeral in the title and I play it. Don't worry, there were so many I think this will carry on into my theme on Monday's Morning Show.... hahaha!

  • Friday 13th March 2026 Morning Show

    Join me for the weather, local news, this day in history and some exciting sports achievements and upcoming glories. My musical playlist is around colours so we're shaking Stevens behind the green door, on a yellow submarine, and mellow yellow along the green river floating with 99 red balloons and more. I had a fab interview with Jami who's our Tourism and Events Workforce Development Advisor for Whaingaroa and from Go Raglan ihub with some important panui and conversations she wants and need Whaingaroa to get involved with. It was a very interesting and extremely relevant to Raglan interview so if your in the space for business, connections, workforce opportunities for youth and progression for business opportunities specifically to Raglan, this interview is for you!
