In this sweeping new history of humanity, told through the prism of our ever-changing moral norms and values, Hanno Sauer shows how modern society is just the latest step in the long evolution of good and evil and everything in between. What makes us moral beings? How do we decide what is good and what is evil? And has it always been that way? Hanno Sauer's sweeping new history of humanity, covering five million years of our universal moral values, comes at a crucial moment of crisis for those values, and helps to explain how they arose -- and why we need them. We humans were born to cooperate, but everywhere we find ourselves in conflict. The way we live together has changed fundamentally in recent decades: global mobility, demographic upheaval, migration movements, and digital networking, have all called the moral foundations of human communities into question. Modern societies are in crisis: a shared universal morality seems to be a thing of the past. Hanno Sauer explains why this appearance is deceptive: in fact, there are universal values that all people share. If we understand the origin of our morality, we can understand its future too. With philosophical expertise and empirical data, Sauer explains how processes of biological, cultural, social, and historical evolution shaped the moral grammar that defines our present. Seven chapters recount the crucial moral upheavals of human history showing how the emergence of humankind five million years ago, the rise of first civilizations 5,000 years ago, and the dynamics of moral progress in the last fifty years are interrelated. This genealogical perspective allows us, on the one hand, to see the contradictions and potential conflicts of our moral identities; on the other, it makes clear that we share fundamental values that apply to all human beings at all times. Sauer's elegant prose, translated into English by Jo Heinrich, brings the history of humanity to vivid new life. Hanno Sauer is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy & Religious Studies at Utrecht University. He teaches ethics, metaethics and political philosophy. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

(Scimex, via Gdubz on the forum) Billy reports on how Germany's newly legalised cannabis system is bogged down by red tape, with Cannabis Social Clubs facing bureaucratic delays even a year after legalisation. We also discuss the lack of proper cannabis education in medical training programs, leaving future doctors unprepared to prescribe or even understand cannabis therapies. And finally, we highlight concerns around the UK's Online Safety Act and how it could impact cannabis content, communities, and education online.

A new book, edited by Wanaka-based film-maker Nick Stevenson, showcases the best of what New Zealand has to offer mountain-bikers.

People working with Auckland's homeless are warning that there is a disproportionately high rate of women without shelter in New Zealand, concentrated in Auckland. Tomorrow, Auckland Council's Community Committee will discuss the region's homelessness crisis and a report showing the number of homeless people rose to 809 in May this year, a 90% increase since last September. Amy Williams reports.

On Friday, Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith announced various changes to the electoral system in New Zealand which he says seek to make the process of voting more efficient and effective for future elections. These include the closing of enrolment 13 days before the official election day, prohibiting the provision of food and drink at polling booths, and a reinstatement of a total prisoner voting ban. A number of Labour and Greens party politicians have been among those to criticise the changes as a disenfranchisement of voters which will make democratic engagement in New Zealand more difficult. As well, last week the Ministry for Housing and Urban Development released the latest iteration of the Homelessness Insights Report which reveals that there has been a quantifiable rise in homelessness across Aotearoa.

In this bonus from our conversation with Labour's Finance Spokeperson, Barbara Edmonds unpacks her approach to tax policy. Following our conversation with Finance Minister Nicola Willis, Barbara raises the question of fairness in how different types of income are taxed, and the need to reassess what's included in New Zealand’s “broad base, low rate” system.Barbara also weighs in on employee share schemes, saying they can lift productivity and give workers a real stake in the businesses they help grow—if the tax settings are right.

In this episode of the show, Binksy, Jamie and Stu look back at the fourth Test between England and India, plus New Zealand's victory in the T20 Tri-Series final against South Africa. We also look ahead to the 5th Test in the UK and the Black Caps v Zimbabwe series. We start the show by talking about India's fantastic fightback on days 4 and 5 of the Test at Old Trafford, which saw the series remain at 2-1 with one match to play. There were hundreds for Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja, but also some controversy surrounding the conclusion of the day's play. Ben Stokes wasn't happy then, but he'd done plenty to earn his player of the match award, taking a 5-wicket bag and scoring 100 across the course of the Test. Joe Root was equally impressive, and Rishabh Pant's bravery stood out for the visitors. We round out the India v England conversation with a discussion about potential and probable changes the 5th and final Test. To finish the show, Stu chimes in to highlight the Black Caps' unbeaten run to some T20 silverware in Zimbabwe, which culminated in a dramatic final against South Africa. With 7 runs needed from 6 balls, Matt Henry stepped up and, with the help of two fantastic catches in the outfield, closed out the victory for New Zealand. In addition, we look ahead to the upcoming Test series against Zimbabwe. We'll be back in your feed next week to recap the England v India and NZ v Zimbabwe Tests.

Health and Safety experts say the Government need to consider people's lives as they set to change scaffolding regulations.

Kia ora,Welcome to Tuesday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with talks are underway in Stockholm between the US and China over a trade/tariff deal. Prospects are not high.And the recent EU-US deal has the makings of unravelling. Both France and Germany are unhappy about the outcome, made worse by the US claiming verbally pharmaceuticals have been excluded when the EU negotiators said they were not excluded from the 15% written deal.The big casualty in all of these deals, including the Japanese one, is trust in the US. Smartarse public commenting by the US president - even some of his advisers - means the deals struck are unlikely to be respected by the US or trusted by the others. The result isn't "a deal", it is a fluid mess.New Zealand's situation in all this will be a footnote, probably sometime on Saturday.In the US, the Dallas Fed's factory survey improved sharply in July, but this was all about higher production. New orders are still contracting, even if at a slower rate. Elevated input price pressures continued in July. Improved sentiment is driving the raised output even in the absence of a pickup in new orders.Financial market eyes are now turning to Thursday's (NZT) US Federal Reserve meeting and decisions. Despite the overt Whitehouse pressure, financial market pricing shows virtually no-one is pricing in a rate cut.In Canada, wholesale sales came in better than expected, up +0.7% in June from May when a -0.2% retreat was anticipated. But despite that good recent gain, they will still be lower than in June 2024.Across the Pacific, from 2022 to 2024, Taiwanese consumer confidence rose. But since October 2024 it has been falling. However the July survey rose, the first break in the recent down-trend. It wasn't a big move from June, but they will take it.In China, they are taking something they don't want. Foreign direct investment recorded another net outflow in June, and a worse one than the highly unusual April net outflow. The reasonable start to 2025 is being undone faster now. In the six months to June they have had a net inflow of US$42.3 bln. In 2024 they had more than that in just the first three months and even that was much weaker than in 2023 (US$98 bln) or 2022 (US$112 bln). Fleeing investors isn't a good look for China.Indian industrial production expanded a rather weak +1.5% in June from a year ago, held back by surprisingly weak mining (coal) production.. In their factories however, the story is much better with manufacturing production us +3.9% from a year ago, a better rise than in May although less than the +4.5% expected.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.42%, up +3 bps from yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$3,309/oz, down -US$27 from yesterday.American oil prices have risen +US$1.50 at just on US$66.50/bbl with the international Brent price is now at just under US$70/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.7 USc and down -½c from yesterday and back to where it was a week ago. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 91.6 AUc. Against the euro we are up +30 bps at 51.5 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just on 67.6, down -10 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$117,664 and down -1.3% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has remained low at just on +/-0.9%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

The crew shares personal stories and perspectives on how respect is earned, lost, and sometimes never given in today's school environment — all while reminding us that teachers are the backbone of every profession. We're also diving into: Whether teachers automatically deserve respect How classroom culture affects student behavior Why administrators and teachers struggle to see eye-to-eye The impact of social media and generational shifts How we can start restoring respect — one classroom at a time Listen now & don't forget to subscribe!  Follow your hosts:  Briana Richardson @HonestTeacherVibes  Jess Smith @TeacherTalesOfMissSmith Cory Michaelis @corymichaeliscomedy Follow us on all platforms @TeachersOffDutyPodcast _________________________________ Teachers Off Duty - A Bored Teachers©️ Podcast  

"It's been a year, get on with it". If you are struggling with any kind of loss and want to feel supported and loved, this conversation is for you. Not only will it help you, but you will see that you are normal, and, most importantly, not alone.  *This episode is part of our husband-and-wife healing conversations series. These podcast episodes are recorded outside. We are husband and wife, Liz and Brian, and we are currently staying on the Greek island of Paros with our two young adult kids as part of our year-long trip away from New Zealand.  The episode starts with us walking to a busy cafe. We invite you to come along with us and have a coffee and a chat. I think you need to hear this. Kia kaha (stay strong), my brave friend. Liz and Brian x PS: If you haven't yet joined my inner circle of friends, my life-letter readers, please do. You will be the first person I share everything with. I'd love to have you. Go here to join us.   I was beating myself up pretty badly in last week's behind-the-scenes outdoor podcast episode. I was frustrated and hurting. The thing is, I miraculously managed to get to be fifty-three years old without ever losing anyone significant in my life, so last year, when I lost both parents within a matter of months, I felt like I'd been thrown into the deep end of the murky waters of grief. As you know, there is no handbook for how to grieve. No guide, no nothing. And I didn't know how to do it. So I did what we all do, the only thing I knew how to do. I wiped my tears, stopped talking about it publicly, felt embarrassed if someone saw me with a tear-stained face and kept myself REALLY busy to hide the fact that I felt broken, lost and sinking in sadness. In short, I did what I had been programmed to do. I got on with it. Hoped that it would all go away and never ever come back as long as I lived. But now here I am. Sixteen months later. On this year-long trip. And, for the first time since my mum and dad died, I have time. Too much time, probably. And when you have lots of time and nothing to distract you, the feelings and emotions that have been pushed down into your toes bubble to the surface. And the result is what you heard last week in this podcast. Shame. Embarrassment. Resentment. Anger. Lost. I am learning now (still learning) that this outburst, this wave of "I hate myself-ness", was a cry for help. Because, like many of us who are grieving in a world that is too busy to stop, I didn't give myself the proper time. Or attention. I didn't know that grief is not just a "one-time-never-comes-back-emotion". That it needs to be honoured. Talked through. Given space.  And time. As much time as it takes. In this episode, Brian very patiently (god, I love this man) listens and advises while I remove the self-blame and shame veil. Remove it for all of us. This is what a healing journey looks like. This is grief. Showing up in the rawest, fullest, deepest, most desperately needing to be addressed kind of way. I hope you feel my love and know that my heart will always beat with yours. Stay strong, my darling friend. Yours Liz x And...if you're feeling really, really generous and have a few minutes to spare, it would be wonderful if you'd leave us a review.

For 30 years, male sperm counts have been declining all around the world, particularly in Western countries. It's been demonstrated over and over again by scientific studies.  Indeed, research published by Oxford Academic in the Human Reproduction Update journal in 2017 looked at nearly 200 studies on the matter. It found that sperm counts in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand had plummeted by 59% from 1973 to 2011. What are the reasons behind this? What can men do to be aware of their fertility? ⁠In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !⁠ To listen to the latest episodes, click here: ⁠Do we have a treatment for Monkeypox at last?⁠ ⁠Who are digital nomads, the new generation of remote workers?⁠ ⁠Who is FN Meka, the world's first AI rapper?⁠ A podcast written and realised by Joseph Chance.

The mysterious algal bloom threatening South Australia's coastline - what you need to know.The beaches of South Australia are being overrun by a strange algal bloom that is killing marine life and could ruin summer tourism. Premier Peter Malinauskas joins us with an exclusive update on the causes, impacts and solutions around this ecological disaster.[00:20] The algal bloom is covering 27% of SA's coastline and killing marine animals that become suffocated. The Premier describes the harrowing scenes he has witnessed firsthand.[02:30] Malinauskas explains the three key factors that triggered this unprecedented algal bloom - nutrient runoff from floods, increased sunlight, and warmer ocean temperatures.[04:20] This phenomena has occurred in New Zealand and Florida before, but the government is investing in research to understand why it is persisting into winter in SA.[05:30] The bloom poses no health risk to beachgoers except minor skin irritation. But plans are underway to manage tourism over summer if it remains.[06:40] Financial support is being provided to affected industries like oyster farming, and calls continue for federal assistance.This fascinating discussion provides deep insight into a disturbing ecological event in South Australia. Tune in to stay informed on this developing story that could impact your summer beach plans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Alistair Ross, creator of Al's Retro Geek Lab and the Back to the BBS documentary series, joins Alex to trace a life in computers from Atari 2600/VCS, ZX Spectrum, and IBM PC XT to today's maker scene, and to explain how modern cybersecurity practice shapes the way he runs and protects vintage systems. We talk nostalgia's pull (the smells, sounds, and CRT glow), the move from Scotland to New Zealand and what that meant for access to gear (hello, rare Poly-1), and even why the famously beefy UK plug reflects a tradition of safety‑first engineering, much like the internet standards that still underpin the modern net.Alistair unpacks the BBS resurgence: disappointment with a homogenized, corporate web drove hobbyists back to sysop‑run spaces where community matters. Modern boards run over Telnet/SSH and can bridge to APIs for news, weather, and chats; clients like SyncTERM and Netrunner make dialing in easy.From a security lens he recommends containerizing BBS services, strict least privilege, and favoring Linux for isolation; user access should start at low levels and only be elevated after trust is earned. For home labs: split traffic with two SSIDs and VLANs, keep retro boxes on untrusted segments, and remember old machines often can't do SSH - so plan defenses around clear‑text Telnet where needed.We cover counterfeit parts (how to spot sanded/re‑marked ICs, why to verify with ROM dumps, and when to buy from Mouser vs. eBay/AliExpress/Temu) and celebrate a community that helps each other, from FujiNet's fast hardware/software iteration to Perifractic's bid to revive the Commodore brand, plus forums like VCFed and Vogons.Asked which late retro icon he'd most like to interview, Alistair chooses Gary Kildall, outlining how CP/M's APIs and BIOS abstraction seeded the microcomputer era and how history often gets the story wrong. He also recalls lessons from interviews with Ken & Roberta Williams (Sierra): pioneers built from passion; today's breakthroughs feel iterative except for inflection points like AI.Media that shaped him? BBC's push around the BBC Micro with serious engineering, Econet networking, and classroom focus, plus magazines that taught kids to type, debug, and learn. He argues for hands‑on, offline-first learning again.On building for old platforms, Alistair mixes joyfully simple QuickBasic with modern workflows: write on a fast machine, cross‑compile with OpenWatcom or DJGPP, test in DOSBox, then copy to real hardwae and even draft small games with Gemini CLI before refining. He notes id Software's Doom used a similar cross‑compile workflow on NeXT.Future collabs he'd love? Deep hardware/firmware projects with teams like FujiNet, and admiration for projects such as PicoGUS and PicoMem that extend 8‑bit ISA machines, ideally while keeping upgrades removable so the original hardware (and smells!) remain. He also walks through software preservation, flux‑level imaging with Greaseweazle, sharing drivers to archive.org, and his balanced view on abandonware vs. active copyrights.Finally, Alistair offers guidance for newcomers: try emulation first, then step into hardware as budget allows (prices are rising); participate in forums; contribute images, manuals and code so others can restore machines tomorrow.

INTERVIEW: Jazmine Mary on "I Want to Rock and Roll" Album release and NZ Tour by Zac Hoffman on Radio One 91FM Dunedin

This week, we're chatting about the differences between US and NZ sheep production systems with Dr. Whit Stewart, an Associate Professor and Extension Sheep Specialist in the Department of Animal Science at the University of Wyoming.Whit has spent the last year on a sabbatical in New Zealand, learning and absorbing as much as he can about sheep farming here. Because of this, he has some great insights into the comparisons between systems as well as what we do well, and what we could do better at. He and Ferg chat about predator pressure, grazing public land, the structure of the US lamb supply chain, and what it's like farming in a country where golden eagles can take 40% of your lamb crop. Whit also chats about what he's learnt here in NZ. Our use of tools like FarmIQ, a strong export focus, and top-notch forage management are our strong points, according to Whit. And he also shares what he thinks we could learn from the US in return.It's a great conversation with someone who is very passionate about building better sheep businesses, regardless of where he is on the globe! Head Shepherd is brought to you by neXtgen Agri International Limited.

Send us a textEver fantasized about leaving America's polarized politics for New Zealand's pristine landscapes? Before you pack your bags for Middle Earth, listen to the unfiltered truth from two expats who took the leap without ever visiting first.My husband, Pavel, returns and we chat with our friends Alex and Andy, who each moved to New Zealand, and reveal what actually happens when you trade global chaos for Kiwi calm. Their stories expose surprising realities about life in New Zealand – from the genuine shock of walking out of a hospital without paying a cent to the refreshingly straightforward tax system that eliminates the annual stress of filing returns. The conversation tackles everything from employment security and distinctive Kiwi communication styles to the significant challenges of being a 30+ hour flight away from family emergencies.Beyond the stunning scenery that captured Peter Jackson's imagination lies a functioning democracy where innovative engineering thrives in isolation. The "figure it out" mentality has created a culture that values practical problem-solving over specialization, while also embracing a more relaxed attitude toward perfectionism. Want a perfectly manicured lawn? New Zealanders couldn't care less.But it's not all smooth sailing in this distant paradise. Alex and Andy candidly address the reality of being on "an island at the bottom of the Pacific" – the reduced availability of international products (particularly Mexican food), the higher-than-expected cost of living, and the genuine isolation that comes with this geographic remoteness.Whether you're seriously considering a move abroad or just curious about alternative living arrangements in uncertain times, this episode offers practical insights and unexpected perspectives on finding your place in a country that values calm over chaos and community over culture wars. -------------------------Follow Deep Dive:BlueskyYouTube Email: deepdivewithshawn@gmail.com Music: Majestic Earth - Joystock

What if hitting rock bottom was actually the beginning of everything? It's often in these moments that we learn our greatest lessons.For my guest, Milo Meldrum, she used it to build a thriving business that honors her season of life, even while she was sharing a one-bedroom flat , whose lounge she birthed her baby in!In this episode, I sat down with the grounded and glowing Milo, a creative entrepreneur and mama of two, who turned her lowest moment into the launchpad for her now-thriving tallow skincare business.Milo first started making her own tallow whip four years ago, to help with stretch marks from her first pregnancy, and then as a nappy rash cream for her son. When she couldn't find anyone selling it in New Zealand, she saw the gap in the market and decided to start her own business.If you've ever felt torn between building your dreams and being present for your babies, Milo brings the kind of quiet wisdom that will show you it's possible to do both beautifully and on your own terms.What You'll Learn:The exact moment Milo declared "this is my rock bottom" and decided to take actionHer three non-negotiable foundations for combining motherhood and business successfullyWhy she locks herself out of social media when parenting (and how it transformed her presence)The daily structure that lets her run a thriving business in just 3 hours a dayHow giving up the blame game became her secret weapon for taking control of her life Hosted on Acast.
