A Hawke's Bay event director hopes a cash injection from the government will make it easier to attract high-profile entertainers to the regions. Mission Estate Winery event director, Garry Craft, spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Oh hey, we were supposed to do something for the Viscount. Good thing that guy is still at the hanged man getting drunk and bragging about being an absolute shithead. Hawke gets some information out of the guy, a templar with the grand cleric's seal abducted the qunari and paid our drunkard to turn his head. We don't get the opportunity to speak with Grand Cleric Elthina, though, because Mother Petrice intercepts us to say that the grand cleric would never sanction such a thing but surely it's fine because she trusts her subordinates to do the right thing. If we press Petrice, then she will sacrifice her trusted bodyguard Ser Varnell and label him a fanatic. She gives us his location and arrives on our heels to disavow Varnell's actions and set Hawke up as the coming retribution. One dead templar later, the Viscount has a huge headache to deal with.

Is this a turning point for the wine industry? Data shows export volumes are expected to grow 4% to 285 million litres in the year to June 2025.

A new use for “ugly” fruit, with two Kiwi dads turning a hobby into a business. Fruit Cru makes use of seconds, the ugly fruit from local orchards that doesn't make it to export, turning it into organic wine. Since starting in 2021, they now produce about 10,000 bottles each year, and have signed a deal with Foodstuffs to stock their beverages in five supermarkets in the Wellington region. Co-founder Cosmo Hawke told Mike Hosking there's a shortage of fruit for traditional wine, but at the same time things like cherries, apples, and feijoas were going unpicked. He says as far as they can tell, they're the only ones making a beverage in this way, and it could only be done in New Zealand. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got a guy from that band you like in conversation with Saturday Night Live's Donald Trump specialist. It's Hamilton Leithauser and James Austin Johnson. Leithauser was-slash-is the voice behind the Walkmen, the indie-rock band that burned bright from 2000 until 2013, at which point they splintered and Leithauser embarked on a solo career and some excellent soundtrack work. Last time he was on this show he was in conversation with Ethan Hawke, with whom he worked on Hawke's Paul Newman documentary; this time around, he's got a long-in-the-works solo album to promote. This Side of the Island came out earlier this year, though it probably would have come out sooner if Leithauser didn't take a break to reunite with the Walkmen for some big shows. It's typically excellent, and a bit more slinky than his past couple. It was produced by The National's Aaron Dessner and he's just finishing up a tour with Father John Misty. For Leithauser's latest video, he roped in comedian James Austin Johnson to play his sorta-stalker / impersonator at the legendary Carlyle Hotel in New York. Check out the video right here, it's called "What do I Think?" If you don't recognize James Austin Johnson's name, you'll recognize his incredible impression of Donald Trump, which he's been doing on Saturday Night Live for the past couple of seasons. Now there have been many Trump impressions over the years, but nobody has quite captured the manic free-association in the way that Johnson has. With SNL off for the summer, Johnson is out doing comedy on the road, where you can catch him over the next few weeks before he returns to his main gig. In this fun chat, Johnson and Leithauser talk about SNL's schedule, about drinking wine on stage, about recording fake sounds versus real ones, and about a guy they're both a little obsessed with: Bob Dylan. Oh, and Trump, but just a little bit. Enjoy. Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to James Austin Johnson and Hamilton Leithauser for chatting.

A major project to relocate five marae in Tairāwhiti is underway, after flooding from Cyclone Gabrielle forced them to move to safer ground. Hawke's Bay Tairāwhiti reporter Alexa Cook reports.

If you want to talk about doing stuff that matters, this week will produce one of the great ones. Repealing the oil and gas ban, as the Government are about to do, puts right an egregious wrong – possibly the most egregious wrong of the last Government. What gives this current Government a better than even chance of a second term is the fact the damage done to the economy was done by the very same people who are still in Labour, still running Labour, and presumably will still argue for the same recipe of destruction next year. Megan Woods drove the oil and gas ban under the instruction of you-know-who. There was no warning, no consultation. Just a fateful announcement in Taranaki. It was idealism at its very worst. If we had all the windmills and solar panels and batteries in place it might have made more sense. But as we have seen and felt for the past handful of winters, we don't. Not even close. What has made it particularly galling is that Australia has doubled down on gas. It understands gas is the transition fuel, while the so-called renewable transformation takes place. Australia's gas industry is run out of Western Australia, which is run by a Labour Government, and fed to the rest of Australia, which is run by a Labour Government. And that, as I have said before, is what can make Labour palatable. A centrist Labour party is electable i.e. Albanese's version or Hawke's. The Ardern and Hipkins version look like a bunch of wonks who never met an economy they couldn't wreck. Now, the repeal won't solve everything overnight. Our reputation is so damaged that a lot of face time and explaining has had to be undertaken with potential investors, hence the Government's $200m stake in the game fund. If you ever wanted a living, breathing, tangible example of a Government that simply didn't get it, think back to your last couple of winters where the coal pile is a mile high, the rain may or may not have come, the gas reports keep getting worse, the spot price heads to the stratosphere and your power bill continues to head to the roof. That is Labour's energy policy. That is the Labour Government's idea of a fun winter. Getting that repealed is rectifying a shockingly shallow, ill-conceived idea and a monumental mistake.

While out for a walk with our friends, we are attacked by slavers on a mission to capture Fenris. Once we finish them off, we find out that Hadriana, Danarius's apprentice, is the one who launched the offensive and she is set up in holding caves nearby.

Aveline, Captain of the Guard, has an important favor to ask of us– deliver a gift to one guardsman Donnic. Weird, but okay. Donnic is just as baffled as we are. On top of that, Aveline has him working an easy patrol, which isn't what someone who takes his job seriously would want. Before Aveline can give Donnic's mother some goats and call it a day, we convince her there are easier and less confusing ways. Will Aveline win the guy?

Hey, remember how at the end of Act 1 Hawke & Co. were betrayed by Bartrand for the sake of a weird artifact? Well, Bartrand is back in Hightown and Varric would like to have a word with him. The squad heads over to his derelict estate and nothing is adding up. There are fresh corpses and crazed guards ready to carve us up and at the end of it all is Bartrand, hearing voices and seeing things all because of the idol that drove a wedge between him and Varric. Bartrand has done some awful things while under the influence of this idol, can Varric ever forgive him?
