Lara talks about her research and experience stepping into the shoes of Julia, but also the sexism she has experienced herself in the theatre world.

EDITORIAL: Can I ask a simple question this morning? At what point does being prepared become being overprotective? Now before anyone jumps on me and has a crack at me, let me make one thing crystal clear. Safety comes first. If lives are genuinely at risk, authorities should act. Nobody wants to see people injured or killed because someone was too slow to make a decision. And I'm certainly not suggesting we ignore severe weather. In fact, the latest figures show between March 2025 and the end of February this year, we had a damaging storm every eight days on average. More than 33,000 insurance claims were lodged for flooding, wind and storm damage. The risks are real. But Wellington has now been through another state of emergency over predicted waves and high winds, and the reality is that what was forecast simply did not eventuate. Mayor Andrew Little himself acknowledged that the predicted conditions "hadn't materialised.” There had been no reports of major damage. The state of emergency has now been lifted. So, my concern now is: are we becoming too quick to shut the city down? I did some rough calculations this morning, because this whole thing concerns me greatly. Wellington's economy is worth around $56 billion a year. Spread that across a normal working year and you're talking about roughly $200 million of economic activity every weekday. Even if only 10 or 20 percent of that is disrupted because people stay home, businesses close, customers disappear and workers can't get into the city, that's potentially tens of millions of dollars affected. Yesterday I walked into a well-known clothing store in the CBD and asked how it was going, didn't even think about the state of emergency. The answer? They hadn't had a single customer all morning. Is that because of the weather? Maybe partly. The weather was fine in the city. Is it because the city was under a state of emergency? I'd bet dollars to donuts that played a major role. If you're told your city is in a state of emergency, you're probably not heading into town to buy a new jacket. Then think about the ripple effects— Parents scrambling with childcare, employees worried about getting home and small businesses, already battered by years of economic hardship, losing yet another trading day. Preparation and resilience are good things. Panic is not. And here's the other thing. We are Wellingtonians. We are proud to be Wellingtonians. We live in one of the windiest capitals in the world. Windy Wellington. We know what a southerly look like, and some of us actually love southerlies. We know what big seas look like. We live on a coast. Storms are part of living here. Meanwhile, Wellington Airport remained open and aircraft continued landing. State of emergency and our major international airport was open. Life carried on, in many respects. But in the back of everyone of everyone's minds: state of emergency. Panic, panic, panic. Of course, authorities acted on the advice they had, and Mayor Little has defended the decision by pointing to the destructive 2020 storms and the uncertainty of forecasting. I'm not saying what we did was wrong, I'm saying do we need to be more careful. There will also be a review of the declaration, and that's exactly as it should be. But perhaps we need a wider conversation. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After three terms as the Ōhāriu MP for Labour, O'Connor is calling it quits. He chats to Nick about the reason, and if it has anything to do with the list rankings released yesterday.

Naidoo has appeared 13th but has been in hot water over informing Police Commissioner Richard Chambers later than Chambers believed was acceptable.

This Sunday is Global Sunday at Family Church - the Sunday in the year when we celebrate all the different nationalities and cultures represented in the one church all brought together by one key theme - we are all saved by the blood of Jesus!Ps Ray gives an amazing message this week. He speaks abut Flags and Banners, perhaps Standards as they are often called. In Exodus 17:15 (NIV) it reads "Moses built an altar and called it The Lord is my Banner". Moses built this altar, God entrusted tribes and standards. Number 2:2 (NIV) reads "The Lord said to Moses and Aaron: “The Israelites are to camp around the tent of meeting some distance from it, each of them under their standard and holding the banners of their family.”A flag denotes our natural belonging, our heritage, place of origin, who we are etc. However, a banner is a declaration, This is where the challenge comes in Ps Ray's message...what or who are we declaring over our lives....We all need to change direction, raise our banners high to say where we are going. Flags describe heritage. Banners are declarations. Song of Songs 2:4 (NIV) "Let him lead me to the banquet hall, and let his banner over me be love".

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Then, Todd Ricketts — Chicago Cubs co-owner and founder of Freespoke, the search engine that labels news sources with media bias ratings — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the increasingly intertwined worlds of media, technology, and professional sports. Ricketts makes the case that when people are given genuinely good information from across the ideological spectrum, they tend to arrive at good answers — and that Freespoke's mission is to present all sides and then get out of the way, rather than letting ad sales determine what news you see. He pushes back on the idea that the market alone can solve the data privacy crisis, arguing data may eventually need to be regulated like a utility but that nothing changes until there's a major "event" that creates real public groundswell. Ricketts is candid about Freespoke's challenges — paywalls remain a real obstacle, the left/right labeling is imperfect and done by outside groups, and the political landscape itself is shifting in ways that scramble the traditional categories . He observes that podcasts have become a primary news source because people clearly hunger for long-form content with nuance, that politicians are now visibly afraid of giving long answers because they might get clipped, and that legacy media still doesn't seem to understand why its audience has migrated elsewhere. The second half pivots into the business of running a baseball team, and Ricketts brings the same straight-talking pragmatism to MLB's looming economic crisis. He argues you cannot sell a salary cap to MLB owners without genuine revenue sharing, because if the league itself isn't competitive then everyone eventually loses — including the owners writing the biggest checks. Players currently take roughly 48% of revenue, a number he expects to climb to around 52% in the next deal, and Ricketts is honest that half of MLB's franchises are still essentially mom-and-pop operations even as private equity money is rapidly entering the sport. He talks about the difficulty of running any sports team in 2026 because fans genuinely feel like they own the franchise, why ownership groups are increasingly building entire entertainment districts around their ballparks to control the fan experience end-to-end, and the painful broadcast rights question every team is wrestling with: fans have cut the cord, the old TV economics no longer work, and ownership has to be flexible with new broadcast partners even as they ask themselves whether season ticket holders should be entitled to free access to every game. Ricketts closes by laying out what would qualify as a disappointing season for the Cubs — a sober assessment from an owner who has watched the economics of his sport, and the media landscape his business depends on, both transform at the same time. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week.

Chuck Todd opens with what he calls the unmistakable arrival of a "YOLO caucus" in the Senate — a growing number of congressional Republicans who are simply done capitulating to Trump, evidenced by John Thune publicly declaring there's no need to "weaponize" the DNI position and by the broader sense that the non-Trump part of the GOP is openly preparing to move on. He argues Trump is doing everything possible to accelerate his own lame duck status: he's politicizing America's 250th anniversary in ways that genuinely alarm vulnerable Republicans, he failed to engage any of the former presidents in the 250th planning, and he's creating Marie Antoinette-style "let them eat cake" optics by celebrating himself at a moment of real economic pain for ordinary Americans. Trump's treatment of CNN's Kaitlan Collins was outrageous, his cranky behavior with the press is a tell that things aren't going well, and his decision to formally nominate Todd Blanche for Attorney General has essentially zero chance of confirmation — Blanche has burned his bridges in the Senate and the doomed January 6th weaponization fund was reportedly his idea in the first place. It's almost as if Trump is begging to put a neon "I'm a lame duck" sign on the White House. Chuck then turns to California, where ballots are still being counted at a pace that he says is actively eroding public trust in the democratic process itself — the state desperately needs to find a way to count faster — and notes that CA-06 was drawn as a safe Democratic seat but the top two finishers right now are both Republicans, while Spencer Pratt looks safer in the LA mayoral race than Steve Hilton does in the governor's race. He closes with a fascinating analysis of the Graham Platner situation in Maine, where Janet Mills' decision to leave her name on the ballot has created a Nikki Haley-style protest vote opportunity for nervous Democrats — Mills didn't bow out in disgrace so her floor is high, and if she pulls 25% or more in the primary, Chuck predicts very real conversations about replacing Platner will begin. The number to watch is ME-02: if Platner underperforms there, it's the clearest red flag that a candidate Democrats once viewed as a slam-dunk pickup is now in serious trouble. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and spends a few minutes reflecting on the life of his grandmother who passed away this week.

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm honored to share a special recording from my friend, the late Sgt. George Mills, a World War II veteran, former prisoner of war, and a man who dedicated his life to serving others. Captured during the Battle of the Bulge and later liberated in 1945, Sgt. Mills understood sacrifice in ways few ever will. For years, he shared something he called “Toast to the Flag.” More than a presentation, it was a heartfelt reflection on the meaning behind the red, white, and blue and the freedoms represented by the American flag. When Sgt. George Mills spoke about patriotism, sacrifice, and this country, he spoke from experience. His words carried the weight of someone who lived through war, endured hardship, and never stopped believing in service to others. I'm thankful to call Sgt. Mills my friend and honored to share his legacy with you on this Memorial Day. This MADM is brought to you by Bama Estate Planning by Attorney Harlan D. Mitchell, proudly supporting stories and the people who make our communities strong. Real stories. Real people. Real impact. News That Unites!™️

Megyn Kelly discusses the curious new report about Cuba having 300 drones and why that's BS "pretext" to potential military action by the U.S., why Cuba is not going to attack America and why that idea is insulting to the American people, misleading reporting and collusion between the corporate media and our government, and more. Then Ryan Grim, co-host of "Breaking Points," and Curt Mills, executive director of The American Conservative, join to discuss what it really means for America to "take" Cuba, why America can get what it wants in Cuba without military action, and more. Then Mark Halperin, host of "Next Up," joins to discuss why Senator Bill Cassidy lost his primary, why Trump's influence is still so strong within the GOP, the possibility of Thomas Massie losing his primary tomorrow, the crucial demographic of the white working class President Trump is losing now, why it could seriously hurt the GOP in future elections, whether the GOP is heading for a loss of both the Senate and House in November, why Spencer Pratt could actually win the Los Angeles mayor race, his dominant ads and social media game, and more. Then Jonathan Alpert, author of "Therapy Nation," joins to discuss how modern therapy culture is causing more mental health struggles in society, why mental health is being used to excuse personal behavior, the rise of self-diagnosis, why “Trump Derangement Syndrome” is actually a real disorder, leftists needing to see therapists after Trump won the presidential race, and more.

SwimSwam sat down with Rachel Stratton-Mills, the Director of Swimming & Diving at Northwestern and the new President of the CSCAA Board of Directors. Northwestern had a promising season this year, especially on the men's side, which saw them place 4th at the B1G conference champs and score a relay at the NCAA Championships for the first time since 2008. Stratton-Mills discusses the development of her team as their 3rd-year leader and is hopeful that there's much more to come. On the CSCAA side of things, the new president sheds light on the reasons changes were made this year to the NCAA Championship format and why specific changes were implemented, such as eliminating B-Finals and adding a new diving format for finals. Stratton-Mills recognizes that not all these changes were hits, but also talks us through how the new CSCAA NCAA DI Working Group of coaches is moving forward with more meaningful change to the NCAA Championships format.
What happens when more than half of rural hospitals stop delivering babies? Senior Advisor for Public Health at MaineHealth, former state health official, and ASTHO Alumni Society Representative Dr. Dora Anne Mills, tells us about the rapidly escalating rural maternity crisis and why it's more than just hospital closures. Dr. Mills explains how Maine has lost nearly half of its maternity units, creating vast “maternity deserts” where pregnant patients face 45-minute or even multi-hour drives for care. Compounding the crisis is worsening maternal health driven by chronic disease, mental health challenges, and substance use, especially among rural and underserved populations.ASTHO Learning Opportunity: ACEs Strategic Communications TrainingThriving Under Pressure: Building Resilient Dialysis Systems and Teams
International tensions took center stage as the U.S. and Iran exchanged military strikes near the Strait of Hormuz while both sides insisted a ceasefire is still in place. According to U.S. Central Command, American naval ships intercepted what were described as unprovoked Iranian attacks and responded with targeted strikes, while Iran accused the U.S. of violating the truce first—raising global concerns due to the Strait’s importance as a major oil shipping route. On the home front, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Drew Sidora opened up about the very real financial stress surrounding her divorce from Ralph Pittman, revealing fears that the Georgia home they once shared could face foreclosure. Court documents show a significant income disparity between the two, and recent rulings have ordered Sidora to vacate the home, intensifying public conversation around finances, custody, and fairness in high‑profile divorces. The show also welcomed music royalty as legendary R&B singer Stephanie Mills joined the RSMS crew for a wide‑ranging conversation about her career, from starring as the original Dorothy in The Wiz to her close friendship with Michael Jackson, whom she strongly defended against long‑standing allegations. Mills reflected on longevity, legacy, and why performing for loyal fans still matters decades into her career. Closing out the episode, Chris Brown marked a major moment with the release of his 12th studio album, Brown—a 27‑track project packed with high‑profile collaborations. Ahead of the release, Brown shared a heartfelt message thanking fans for sticking with him through a long journey and urging them to enjoy the work he poured into the album, which officially dropped at midnight and immediately sparked buzz across social media.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week they break down Nazi tattoo guy Graham Platner effectively clinching the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination in Maine, the Justice Department's new charges against former FBI Director James Comey, and the left's bizarre insistence that the would-be White House Correspondents Dinner shooter was not political despite his manifesto. Plus, they examine the latest twist in Al Gore's climate change charade.First, Jim and Greg break down Gov. Janet Mills dropping out of the Maine U.S. Senate race, a move that all but hands the nomination to Platner. They revisit the disturbing controversies tied to Platner and highlight how aggressively Mills had previously criticized him.Next, they react to a federal grand jury returning two felony indictments against Comey tied to his “8647” Instagram post last year. Comey now faces charges of threatening to kill President Trump and then distributing that threat through social media. Jim and Greg have no love for Comey, but they explain why this prosecution is likely to fail.Then, they focus on the would-be shooter and his manifesto. And Jim and Greg are stunned as Barack Obama and others on the left claim the motive was unknown long after the manifesto had already been released.Finally, they get a good laugh as former Vice President Al Gore, after decades of warning about the supposedly catastrophic effects of global warming, is now sounding the alarm in the opposite direction.Please visit our great sponsors:Fast Growing TreesBetter plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.Noble GoldSchedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.
