This week on Nintendo Pow BlockThis week on Nintendo Pow Block, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Edward Varnell⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Corey Dirrig ⁠⁠⁠⁠ dive into a massive week of Nintendo and gaming news. The show kicks off with the surprise Nintendo Direct for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, featuring a brand-new trailer introduced by Miyamoto and Illumination's Chris Meledandri—plus a hilarious cameo from Jack Black. We also got big casting confirmations, with Brie Larson as Rosalina and Benny Safdie as Bowser Jr. The crew also breaks down the unexpected reveal that Pokémon Pokopia will launch on a Game-Key Card for Switch 2, marking The Pokémon Company's first GKC title. This caused a massive conversation from physical game fans, wondering if Nintendo is going back on their word on all first party games will be on full cartridges. In another social media announcement, LEGO and Nintendo showed off their second LEGO Zelda set, coming in 2026 and featuring Link battling Ganon from what looks like the end of Ocarina of Time-inspired scene.Beyond Nintendo, the guys dig into Valve's newly revealed Steam Box, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame, the next evolution of their gaming hardware ecosystem. They discuss how these new devices integrate with the Steam Deck, how Valve's hardware lineup will stack up against what Nintendo is doing with Switch 2, and how it compares to Microsoft's current "Play Anywhere" strategy.Plus, Atari opened pre-orders for RollerCoaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition, getting a physical Switch release via Limited Run Games in March 2026. And to wrap things up, they react to the leaked footage from the upcoming Zelda movie, showing Zelda and Impa on horseback in New Zealand.

A ship without a captain can drift — but what happens when someone new quietly takes the helm? In this episode, Sarah investigates how IntSAR evolved through three distinct lifespans: its founding as a small charitable company, its transformation under Peter Cowell's leadership, and its sleek modern relaunch years later. Each version carries the same crest, motto, and mission — but behind the surface lies a changing cast of characters and unanswered questions. From archived websites and corporate filings to interviews with those once involved, The BADmiral explores how legitimacy can be borrowed, how old structures can hide new intentions, and how the line between purpose and pretense can blur at sea. Peter Cowell was contacted for comment during the production of this series. At the time of publication, no response has been received. All accounts and opinions in this series are those of the participants, based on their own experiences. Allegations are always attributed to their sources. The story is told in the public interest to examine how trust, belief, and ambition can intertwine.

Paul Hawksbee was joined by Andy Jacobs for this afternoons podcast. We joined by Danny Kelly, who discussed Troy Parrott's sensational hat-trick, the Colchester boss Danny Cowley provided an update on his team's journey to Walsall this past weekend, and Archie Curzon joined us in the studio to look back at the England vs. New Zealand match. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Over the last 15 years, around 1000 New Zealand workers are thought to have been been exposed to high concentrations of respirable crystalline silica dust while working with engineered stone slabs. It's been banned in Australia, and now our government is seeking feedback on options to control the risks it poses in New Zealand. One of the country's largest fabricators has made the switch to zero-silica engineered stone and is now calling on others to do the same. Samantha Gee visited its new factory in Tasman.

After two games in two days the Silver Ferns and England Roses can't be separated and the series will be on the line in Manchester on Thursday.

Sports reporter Felicity Reid spoke to Lisa Owen.

Crypto is a real conversation starter—so let’s talk about it. Just a few years ago, crypto was too hot to handle for most people. Now, it’s being embraced by the financial establishment.

Dr. Al Grauer hosts. Dr. Albert D. Grauer ( @Nmcanopus ) is an observational asteroid hunting astronomer. Dr. Grauer retired from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock in 2006. travelersinthenight.org From August 2025. Today's 2 topics: - The Trappist-1 planetary system located about 40 light years away in the constellation of Aquarius consists of a small red dwarf star and 7 Earth sized planets. By carefully studying changes in the planet's transit timings and the shape of the dip in the host star's brightness as each planet transits across it, astronomers have been able to measure the orbital period, radius, and approximate mass for each of the 7 planets.   - Recently my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Richard Kowalski discovered 2017 MB1, a 0.4 mile diameter asteroid with the Catalina Sky Survey Schmidt telescope on Mt. Bigelow, AZ. Two hours and 11 minutes later it came into a set images I obtained with the 60 inch telescope on Mt. Lemmon, AZ. After I reported it, the new object was tracked by telescopes in Arizona, New Zealand, Slovenia, Kansas, Australia, Hungary, France, and Brazil.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Last week saw the release of the Global Tobacco Interference Index. In it, Aotearoa ranked 53rd in the world - a whopping 52 places down from two years ago. This ranking two years ago was reflective of our robust anti-smoking laws - since the current coalition government has repealed them, however, that reputation has come seriously into question. These rankings now serve as a warning about the role that the tobacco industry plays in health policy, and New Zealand's failure to manage smoking and tobacco lobbying. Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to Professor of Public Health at the University of Auckland, Chris Bullen, about the ranking, Tobacco influence in the government, and what it says about Smoking in New Zealand as a whole.

Big win for NZ Inc. and a lesson for everyone who doesn't understand tariffs. Donald Trump has cut tariffs on beef and the beneficiaries are largely New Zealand, Australia and Brazil. Brazil has had a 50% tariff so they will be thrilled. We are at 15% and it's 10% for Australia. We may not benefit as much but given we are “balling”, as they say anyway, anything that gives us a chance to sell more has got to be welcome. The latest figures show that we have had a fall off in volumes of beef to the U.S. What's helping us is the value. Volume is one thing, value is another. If the value offsets the volume you are still winning. Of course if the world only understood the true value of a tariff-free environment we would all be better off. But that debate seems, for now, to be losing ground globally as more and more economies retrench. Anyway, the reason Trump moved is because he is in trouble. He is in trouble on a lot of things and unless the tide turns this time next year in the midterms it's all going to come home to roost, and the Republicans will lose their ascendency, and if that happens, they will turn on the president and the latter part of the president's term will be what they call a "lame duck". In some respects it's been a surprise that his line of abstract economics has lasted so long. There is nothing particularly complex about tariffs, and to be fair to Trump, if China charges you 30% on something then a reciprocal tariff is not out of order. But the “slap them all” approach he used on a place like New Zealand and Australia, not to mention Switzerland that only just got sorted over the weekend, was bizarre, if not completely nuts. All that crap about importers and countries paying tariffs was never real and as Americans lined up at the butchers to pay more for New Zealand beef they got angry, and they got angry to the point trump has had to acquiesce So the tariffs fall and places like NZ Inc. cash in. It's good to be on the right side of the argument. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Trade Minister's cautiously welcoming a rollback of US tariffs on food imports including New Zealand beef, offal and kiwifruit. US President Donald Trump's signed an executive order reducing the tariffs. The affected New Zealand products represent around 25 per cent of our exports to the United States, worth more than two billion dollars annually. Trade Minister Todd McClay told Mike Hosking that it's still a very uncertain time for Kiwi exporters. He says he's concerned about the changing nature in the White House and even though it's been reduced, the tariffs could be brought back.

The Coromandel is well-regarded as one of New Zealand's top holiday hotspots, but it's got more to offer adrenaline junkies than it lets on. Adventure Racing Coromandel co-founder Andy Reid's been leading the charge in this development, having helped create the K2 bike race and the Kauri Run - among others. Reid's taken his findings and experiences and put them in a new book - Are You Trying to Kill Us?

High performers often mistake exhaustion for weakness — but decision fatigue is a signal, not a flaw. Discover how to restore clarity through nervous system peace, not more productivity. Learn how to pause without losing momentum.Decision fatigue isn't a sign of failure — it's your nervous system asking for peace.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks the truth behind leadership exhaustion and over-responsibility, revealing why even the most capable high performers reach a point where every decision feels heavy.Drawing from the story of Jacinda Ardern, former Prime Minister of New Zealand, Julie reframes her courageous resignation not as retreat, but as revelation — a model of grounded leadership that protects alignment more fiercely than image.You'll learn why rest isn't passive, but the very thing that restores discernment, clarity, and emotional regulation. From a neuroscience perspective, decision fatigue is what happens when your system mistakes adrenaline for safety — leaving you in constant vigilance. From a spiritual lens, it's the moment The Sovereign invites you to remember: you were never meant to lead alone.The Recalibration isn't another mindset tactic or productivity tip. It's the root-level realignment of identity and nervous system — the shift that makes every other tool effective again. When your identity is anchored, rest stops feeling dangerous and starts feeling holy.Today's Micro RecalibrationCancel one unnecessary decision. Delay one nonessential choice. Then, instead of filling that space — let peace choose where your attention goes. You'll be surprised how quickly clarity returns when it's not being chased.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.
