A new law has been drafted to ban social media for under-16s in New Zealand. Robbie Nicol joins Toby to answer all the big questions. Which platforms meet the definition of “social media”? How will it be enforced? When will the rules kick in? And is it really a government bill? Winston Peters doesn't think so. We work through some of the objections, from NZ First, Act, the Greens and Labour. (Since this podcast was recorded, Labour has announced it will support the bill on first reading, and urged the government to proceed before the election.)Plus, in How Good, Alex Casey sings the praises of Lynda Topp on Guy Montgomery's Spelling Bee.At Large with Toby Manhire is produced by Te Aihe Butler, Jin Fellet and The Spinoff.

Aaron's a smiley, affable dude, and on today's BONUS episode, we talk about the Maoist China origins of his anxiety, which kind of therapy is dinner and which kind is dessert, getting married and moving with his wife to America right afterward and SO MUCH MORE!

The Pitt returns to take viewers through another remarkably busy day in the ER at Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center. What is there to celebrate in the show's fictional Fourth of July? Heather Cocks, our S01 guest, returns to talk about it. Around The Dial takes us through a passel of recent comedy specials from George Civeris, Kumail Nanjiani, Frankie Quiñones, and Sarah Squirm (aka Sarah Sherman); Heated Rivalry creator Jacob Tierney's previous hockey show, Shoresy; and Bookish, old to Brits but new to PBS.

Welcome one and all to the continuation of our grand tradition - DeathBlart. Now in its 11th year, our celebration has turned into a comedic prank against Guy Montgomery - a man uniquely qualified to both laugh at the gag at his expense, and to determine whether writing "HELIPAD" on a flare and throwing it constitutes the requisite components to be considered a joke. Meanwhile, gathered together in person in Cincinnati, Ohio are Travis, Justin, Griffin and Tim - themselves exploring the concept of Kevin James as a warrior-clown. This episode features a VERY SPECIAL appearance from a guest and FINALLY, a continuity error.Candle Nights Details and tickets here themcelroy.family/events Hosted on Acast.

It's the first watch and it's also the most elastic experience of time Guy Montgomery has ever had while sober. Tim is terrified of what has the pair have signed themselves up to for this season upon now seeing the film. Recounting the plot is a seemingly impossible task. This film releasing in cinemas seems, in retrospect, like an impossible outcome. But the inescapable truth is: Movie come out - something need happen.Get the episode early, ad-free and in video form at twioat.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

You're about to see a side to Aaron Chen you've never seen before. You might know him as George in Fisk, or Guy Montgomery's sidekick on Spelling Bee. Maybe you cheered his win on Taskmaster Australia season 3. He's also an acclaimed stand-up comic.

But here, you're getting a whole lot more. More stories, silliness, and backstory to Aaron Chen. I really loved this conversation, mainly cos I had no idea what to expect.

He's well known to kiwi audiences through his hit shows - Guy Montgomery's Guy Mont-Spelling Bee, Have You Been Paying Attention, and Thank God You're Here. Guy has recently found success across the Tasman with the Australian version of his spelling bee show proving a big hit with audiences. The show was picked up for a second season and he's been nominated for a Logie for Most Popular New Talent at the prestigious Australian Televison awards.
Guy Montgomery dropped by for Quick Draw and nearly gave us a spelling-induced stroke — but not before getting compared to Taylor Swift (it’s his era, betch). Things got heated as he took on RickI in a match so tense, our smartwatches told us to breathe. Guy backed himself hard, but in a twist as wild as a Sex and the City reboot, RickI clawed her way back from near-defeat. And yes, there were multiple mentions of the word "labia."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
