A recent survey has revealed that Kiwis are more nosy in open homes than many would expect. The survey found that 72% of participants admitted to snooping through wardrobes, and 69% confessed to looking through drawers and cupboards. Despite this, real estate agent and Location, Location, Location host Jane Kiely told Ryan Bridges that she's never had a missing item reported from an open home. ‘11 years I've been selling, I have not had one item stolen or moved' LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Evan Henshaw-Plath, also known as Rabble, was born in Berkeley while his Mom was a student. His parents were hippies, and he grew up near Silicon Valley, which gave him access to work with startups as early as High School. He founded Odeo, which eventually became Twitter. He got the name Rabble cause it was founded by three Evan's, which didn't work - so he went with his online nickname. He has a cool track record of working not only on Twitter, but Flickr, Palm, and other big names. He lives in New Zealand, enjoying all the outdoor activities, and participates in activism in digital rights and environmentalism. Being a Vegetarian, he admits that his comfort food is Mexican cuisine, which he doesn't get a lot of in the land of the Kiwis.Rabble was disappointed when Twitter shut down its open app capabilities. He wanted something like Twitter, but built to where someone couldn't take away his access. He started to dig into protocols, and eventually landed in San Francisco to tell his friends that he was going to make social media work like email and messaging.This is the creation story of Rabble Labs & Verse.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthPostmanMeilisearchMailtrap.TECH Domains (https://get.tech/codestory)Linkshttps://www.verse-pbc.org/https://www.linkedin.com/in/rabble/Our Sponsors:* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Could Roger Tuivasa-Sheck make another code switch in 2027? The Sydney Morning Herald reports the Warriors great is a target of the proposed Rugby360 competition for when he comes off contract after next season. The newspaper estimates the value of the offer at over one million dollars per season – double what Tuivasa-Sheck is currently earning with the Warriors. Former Kiwis Captain Richie Barnett told Heather du Plessis-Allan this is a massive threat to the NRL. He says they've always had to contend with competitions trying to recruit across codes, but the money and consortiums that are coming up now have too big a pool of money to say no to.

A rare little spotted kiwi has been spotted in the wild on the mainland for the first time in nearly 50 years. The bird was seen in March in the remote Adams Wilderness Area on the West Coast. It's estimated only 2000 remain, and were thought to be only on offshore islands or in fenced predator-free sites. DoC diversity ranger Iain Graham discovered the bird - and says they're more vulnerable to predators than other kiwi species. "It takes these guys a whole lot longer than our other kiwi species, it takes them up to two years to get to that stoat-proof weight, so they're vulnerable for a much longer period of time."

More accusations are being slung across the House, with the Greens indicating it's the Government that's forcing people across the ditch. At today's Question Time, Greens co-leader Chlöe Swarbrick asked the Prime Minister about the conditions making young Kiwis head to Australia.

TRA's latest New Zealand's Favourite Ads survey for June 2025 has revealed what ads Kiwis are loving the most - and one of the top contenders is powered by AI. Skinny's new ad campaign starring a digitally cloned 64-year-old Liz Wright - chosen from hundreds of entries in a nationwide search - rounded out the top 10 in a list including Tux, One NZ, KFC and Turners. Spark's marketing and data director, Matt Bain, says AI has allowed digital effects in advertising to become more 'democratised'. "Brands like Skinny can actually do things like clone a customer and then create scenes that wouldn't have been possible on Skinny's budgets."

Should your job provide health insurance coverage? There are calls for a fringe benefit tax break as a Council report reveals people are twice as likely to have car insurance than life or health. It says 78% of Kiwis pay for their own insurance, rather than employers footing the bill. Enriched Retirement Founder Liz Koh told Andrew Dickens that New Zealanders tend to think they're bulletproof, and they don't tend to put health insurance at the top of their priority list. She says that if you don't have good health, it impacts your ability to work, and employers have a vested interest in making sure their employees are healthy.

Send Us A Message! Let us know what you think.In this bonus episode of the Property Apprentice Podcast, host Debbie Roberts breaks down a major change in New Zealand's property regulations that could significantly ease the burden for families using trusts. The New Zealand government has announced key updates to anti-money laundering (AML) rules, aiming to reduce excessive compliance requirements for “low-risk” property transactions involving family trusts. This move is set to simplify the often complex and intrusive checks that everyday Kiwis have faced when selling a home held in a trust. 

There's immense pressure for young New Zealanders trying to find work as opportunities decline. Stats NZ data shows 16 percent of Kiwis aged 15-24 are unemployed. NZ Careers Expo director Mark Gillard says the market conditions show it's a tough market for young workers. "It's not anybody's fault, the onus is certainly there on employers, on industry organisations to engage with young people.

Wellington has had a smashing weekend with the All Blacks, 10cc and the NBL semi-final in town - but is the city really on the up? And how much does the city's economy rely on big events? Also, we learnt last week 30,000 Kiwis moved to Australia last year alone. How do we keep our young talent in New Zealand - and can we compete with the attraction of Australia?

Pip was born in Wellington but grew up in a remote farming community in the South Island. Like many Kiwis, she took off on the classic OE, living in places like England, France, and Ireland before eventually making her way back to Aotearoa. After stints in Tekapo and Kaikōura, she settled in New Plymouth in 2009. Not long after, the arrival of her second child changed everything—shifting her perspective and opening doors she never expected. These days, Pip works at Conductive Education Taranaki, supporting children with disabilities, and keeps things fun on the side by teaching Dance Fitness classes.

New Zealand can't get enough of Bill Bailey. The UK comedian last came to our shores in 2023, tickets to his ‘Thoughtifier' tour selling out. He'll be back towards the end of the year, bringing a celebration of comedy, songs, and skills by the name of ‘Vaudevillean' to Kiwi audiences.

Should Jacinda Ardern return to the country and face the Covid inquiry music? The answer, I think, must be yes. I confirmed this morning on my Herald NOW show that the Royal Commission has reached out to Jacinda and asked her to attend in August. The KC running the show would not answer whether she'd replied or whether she'd lawyered up, but he did say that the only way to get out of attending is if you're not the in the country because they don't have jurisdiction. So the question is: as a former Prime Minister who wielded more power than Muldoon - war-time executive powers - as somebody who's always claimed their intentions were good, and as somebody who's claimed they were in politics for the children, will the former PM front this inquiry and be honest? Honest about what really went on behind closed doors and behind those PPE masks? Boris Johnson appeared at his country's inquiry, and twiddled his fingers and answered all that was put before him. Isn't there a moral obligation to the people of New Zealand, too? They still live with the consequences of decisions that she and her Cabinet made. She's making money off books and all sorts while many businesses here never recovered from lockdowns. Isn't a little truth-telling in order? I was one of just a handful of interviewers who grilled her on a weekly basis during this time period. I'm saving the best bits for a book one day, but there was image and stage control happening behind the scenes you wouldn't believe. The problem for Jacinda if she decides not to front is this - and it's a question Kiwis will be asking themselves - what has she got to hide?

New Zealand has a limited range of ventures producing medicinal cannabis - but the most successful distributor doesn't even sell directly to Kiwis. Medical marijuana company Puro has just signed a $16 million distribution deal in the UK, but co-founder Tim Aldridge says red tape is stopping the business from selling domestically. Aldridge says there's no manufacturing or packaging companies that can take their product - and they need to ship that out to Australia.

Right, tell me what you think of this. There seems to be a bit of an effort underway at the moment to portray IRD as bad guys because they're chasing Kiwis overseas who owe money on their student loans. Now, tell me if you think that we should let either of these two off the hook on the money that they owe. The first is a pilot who moved to Australia 10 years ago. He now owes IRD $170,000. That is his original loan, plus basically mostly interest. He says he moved there for a pilot job in 2014, did it for six years, lost it during COVID, had to take a low-paying job in a storage warehouse. He's a pilot again, but this loan is so big, he doesn't know if he's ever gonna be able to pay it back. Should we let him off his debt? Or do you, like me, look at what a regional commercial pilot in Australia can earn, which is over $100,000 and possibly even closer to $200,000 Australian dollars, and think, he can probably afford to start paying back that debt. The second is a woman who has a debt of $70,000. Now, she moved to the United States 20 years ago. She wants to come back now to see her sick mom, but she can't because she's worried that she's gonna be arrested at the border. Should we wipe her debt? So she can come home and see her sick mom? Or do you like me, think that's entirely her decision. She can come back and see her sick mom. Ain't nobody stopping her doing that. And maybe when she gets here, we'll have a little chat about how she can start to make some repayments on that debt. Or she can carry on like she is, which is clearly valuing her money over her mom. Not coming back. And by the way, arrests over the border only happen to the worst offenders who've who've ignored all attempts by IRD to sort out the debt. Now, don't think I'm callous, right? I do feel sorry for both of these people and everybody else like them, because I imagine it's a horrible situation to be in, to allow your debt to get that out of hand. But that is not an excuse not to pay it back. IRD is, from what I can tell, pretty reasonable here. So much so that that woman's $70,000 debt has now been reduced to only $15,000 so it just covers the original debt in the end. The penalties have been wiped. This is them coming to the party to try to help. Sorry, the free ride is over, the repayments need to start. New Zealand is broke, we actually need this money back. I applaud IRD for going hard on this, and so far, I'm completely unmoved by any attempts to paint them as bad guys. I am yet to come across a single case where I think that IRD is being unfair, asking for the student loan to be repaid. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A former IRD prosecutor is calling for changes to the student loan system so that Kiwis living overseas aren't put off coming home because they're worried about being arrested at the border. In April, interest rates for overseas borrowers was lifted from 3.9% to 4.9% and the late payment interest rate for all borrowers to 8.9%.
