For our weekly catch-up with the Labour Party, Wire Host Caeden speaks to Deputy Leader Carmel Sepuloni about Waitangi Day and the new ‘State of the Nation' report from the Salvation Army. And for the inaugural International Desk, 95bFM's new segment focused on breaking and under-reported news from around the globe, they speak to Brock University's Dr. Jordan House about California's use of incarcerated individuals as firefighters. For City Counselling this week, Producer Sofia catches up with Councillor Fairey about further criticism regarding Auckland Council's proposed restrictions on dog walking, as well as further criticism on the decision process to move the Western Springs speedway to Waikaraka Park.  And she speaks to co-President of the New Zealand Association of Scientists and Principal Investigator in Te Pūnaha Matatini Centre of Research Excellence, Troy Baisden, about US President Donald Trump cutting and limiting rafts of funding for science and health research and its implications.

The recent wildfires in Los Angeles drew attention to the hundreds of firefighters who came from California's prison system. The California Department of Corrections has claimed their “Fire Camp Program” is voluntary but this has come into question by prison reform advocates and ex-incarcerated individuals. Advocates have called for stronger protections for incarcerated workers, especially as climate change creates a need for an expanded labour force to respond to natural disasters. For our inaugural International Desk, 95bFM's segment focused on breaking and under-reported news from around the globe, Wire Host Caeden spoke to Brock University's Dr Jordan House about this programme and its potential in other jurisdictions such as Canada.

Migrants are returning to Australia post-pandemic, and with more and more non-English speakers in our community, some firms may see a need to build international desks that can better service those persons to ensure equal access to justice. Both from the perspectives of legal service and business needs, building such a desk makes a lot of sense. On this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Robinson Gill principal Lu Cheng about her experience in running her firm's China desk, how and why the opportunity to build such a capability within her suburban firm came about, what is so important about building such desks, and the ever-present need to ensure equal access to justice to those in the community. Ms Cheng also responds to questions about whether or not offering such services for non-English speakers in the community will become a duty for law firms of all stripes, the challenges in establishing an international desk within a law firm, how to manage client relationships for those non-English speakers, ensuring that business owners and leaders see the value in establishing an international desk, and the trends dictating the need for such capabilities.

We continue the story of a covert smuggling operation to bring abortion pills into Ukraine, shortly after the Russian invasion. In this episode, reporters Katz Laszlo and Gregory Warner go to Ukraine, landing on a fall night during a citywide blackout, to pick up the trail of the pills and find out about the doctors and patients who needed them. But as they follow the pills around the country, what they learn changes their understanding of how we talk about these pills, and how we talk about choice, in a war.  This episode is the second of two done in collaboration with NPR's Rough Translation.

We are joined by another international subject matter expert this week, in Laura van der Zwet!  Learn all about the great work being done by the Dutch Probation Service. Specifically, their International Office.   If you have ever watched an episode of Locked Up Abroad, and been curious as to that experience, you are going to love my chat with Laura!  Not only has Dutch Probation devised a model to address the issue of their citizen's being detained in prisons outside of the Netherlands, but that have learned how to leverage a network of international volunteers to support it.  Always a pleasure learning new cultures and systems...and Laura does not disappoint!

Fighting right-wing smears of progressive healthcare proposals.   Republicans have been so effective at smearing so-called “government-run” healthcare as expensive and wasteful that they have obscured just how much the current, private healthcare industry gouges Americans on everything from pharmaceutical drugs to routine care. This week, we're re-airing two interviews with experts who say healthcare can be safer and more affordable if corporations got out of our collective pockets.  Dan Zuberi  If hospitals would spend a little more money paying their own employees, instead of outsourcing for the cheapest support workers, they would save money by cutting down on costly hospital infections. That's the analysis from health professor Dan Zuberi. Steve Knievel  Steve Knievel is an advocate for Public Citizen's Access to Medicines program, focusing on expanding affordable access to medicines. They say that to help stop Big Pharma's price gouging in the U.S., Congress must listen to the American public, ignore the pharmaceutical industry's high-paid lobbyists and finally pass legislation granting Medicare the authority to negotiate drug prices. Jim Hightower   The Sad Whine of Supreme Court Right   Ralph Waldo Emerson told about a guest who came to dinner and spent the entire evening prattling about his own integrity: “The louder he talked of his honor,” Emerson wrote: “the faster we counted our spoons.”   Today, America has not one, but six guests in our national home babbling about their integrity. They are the six extremist Republican judges who now control our Supreme Court, and it's a bit unsettling to hear them go on and on, almost frantically pleading with us to believe in their judicial impartiality.

I am, I suppose, somewhere in the middle of the pack when it comes desk organization. Somewhere, that is, between a "compulsive." whose desk is clean except for a small symmetrical pile of papers beside a cup of well-sharpened pencils, and a "chaotic." whose workspace looks like the emptied-out contents of a half dozen waste-paper baskets. The problem, of course, is how to impose some organization on the mountain of things you really should read or think about. I mean, where do you even start? I used to have the same problem when it came to describing the U.S. financial environment.
