Owen Milne had the best seat in the house during the recent Code Red swell at Teahupoo, and he nearly paid for it with his life. He gives us the best rundown yet of what it was like to be staring mutant slabs in the eyeball from close quarters. Spoiler alert: it was absolute mayhem. Wipeouts, jet ski near misses, paddling and tow surfing clinics, and Doug Silva getting sucked up the guts of a catamaran and nearly turned into mince meat by twin propellers. Owen's raw account of the swell is one of the better depictions of what goes down at Teahupoo when it's 20+ foot and maxing. You can watch it here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
August 24, 1914. A train pulls up to the lumber town of White River, Ontario, carrying a regiment of Canadian troops on board. On the tracks where they disembark is a small black bear cub. An army veterinarian decides to buy the bear and name her Winnipeg—Winnie for short—after the town where he's been living. When the soldiers are deployed to the European front, Winnie is left at the London Zoo, where a child named Christopher Robin Milne will meet her. He'll later rename his own teddy bear after her: Winnie-the-Pooh. How did a real-life boy and a real-life bear inspire some of the world's most famous literary characters? And what impact did these stories ultimately have on the people who helped bring them to life? Special thanks to Ann Thwaite, whose book about Milne and Winnie-the-Pooh is titled Goodbye Christopher Robin: A.A. Milne and the Making of Winnie-the-Pooh.

Weddings aren't cheap – well, most of the time. In New Zealand, the average wedding costs between $35,000 - $45,000, but depending on your tastes and needs, it can grow much higher. The recent wedding between Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez cost somewhere between $20 million and $50 million USD – roughly 200 times more than what the average Kiwi spends. However, one columnist points out that compared to their wealth, Bezos and Sanchez actually spent quite little. So Kevin Milne is wondering, is it Bezos who's being excessive, or is it the rest of us. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Technology has improved in leaps and bounds over the years – going from landlines to brick phones to smartphones in relatively quick succession. However, as technology has improved, it's also become increasingly difficult to repair for one reason or another. Gone are the days when you can pop your battery out of your phone and put a new one in. Kevin Milne recently tried to buy a new battery for his iPhone, and ran into an annoying problem when trying to get the real deal. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Kevin Milne is encouraging people to spend a little more time outside this weekend. The New Zealand Garden Bird Survey ends this weekend, which aks people to record the number of birds they see in their garden over the span of an hour. Last weekend saw Kevin take part in the Whale Count, but he thinks most people will have better luck with the birds. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Dead Cow Gully Backyard Marathon in Queensland is not for the faint of heart. Billed as a race with no finish line, the Backyard Ultra format has no predefined length or time, but requires runners to complete a 6.7km loop every hour. Kevin Milne was following the race, and thinks it's a good thing he didn't manage to get his entry in on time. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Winnie - the real-life bear who inspired A.A. Milne to create Winnie-the-Pooh - died at London Zoo on 12th May, 1934. Brought to the UK by Canadian soldier Harry Colbourn, who'd named her after Winnipeg, the approachable bear took up residence at the Zoo during the First World War, where she became a favourite with visiting children, who were permitted to ride on her back and feed her treats. One such visitor was none other than Christopher Robin. In this episode, The Retrospectors explain why Winnie's enclosure was an architectural triumph; consider A.A. Milne's attempt to distance his family from Pooh's legacy; and discover that the literary Pooh could have been a swan… Further Reading: • ‘The True Story of the Real-Life Winnie-the-Pooh' (HISTORY, 1934): https://www.history.com/news/the-true-story-of-the-real-life-winnie-the-pooh • ‘The skull of the 'real' Winnie goes on display' (BBC News, 2015): https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-34844669 • ‘The bear who inspired Winnie-the-Pooh' (ZSL, 2014): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdOymRprTqM Love the show?
