Wellingtonians keen on a chair their favourite councillor once sat on or a light fitting that maybe shone on The Beatles can now head to the dump. The capital city's famous tip shop is selling furniture and fixtures no longer required in the 120-year-old Town Hall, which is undergoing a facelift. The earthquake-prone central city building has been shut since 2013 and its redevelopment has proved contentious, after costs ballooned from 182 to 330 million dollars. Nick James reports.

The boys are back! Matt and Nick decided to dust off the ol' microphones and review the first film of the new DC Cinematic Universe, "Superman" by James Gunn. Will their Marvel fanboy status affect their feelings about this "new" summer blockbuster? Will they still have the same juice they always had or are they aging out of podcasting? Will they even remember how to do a show? There's only one way to find out! Other topics include getting older, catching up on life, Dr. Pepper, power scaling, Space Imps, Twisters, Corenswet is huge, Snyder's a hack, fighting your opposite, Dawn of Justice, Dawn of the Dead, Watchmen, the Kents are bumpkins, physics, The Dog Whisperer, Peacemaker, Suicide Squad, what's cannon?, Southpark, Creature Commandos, The Batman, Alien Romulus, Fantastic Four, Ironheart, and of course, staying hard.

The government's radical overhaul of pay equity laws is having its final reading in Parliament, with opposition parties fuming that the controversial reforms are being rail-roaded through under urgency. Workplace Minister Brooke van Velden on Tuesday announced the government will raise the threshold for proving work has been historically undervalued when making a pay equity claim. Nick James filed this report from Parliament.

Opposition parties and protestors have come out in force - quite literally on the steps of Parliament - within hours of the coalition announcing a law change that will make it harder to pursue a pay equity claim. The furore over the government's decision to raise the threshold for proving work has been historically undervalued as part of a claim, has forced ministers to go on the defensive. Nick James has been following developments from Parliament.

Nick James joins Emile Donovan from the capital where MetService have warned of a threat to life from flying items and falling trees.

It's taken the best part of a decade but sod has finally been turned on Wellington's Golden mile upgrade. The $116 million dollar plan was part of the "Let's Get Wellington Moving" intiative before it was canned and is supposed to transform the capital's entertainment precinct. But some local businesses who will be affected by the upgrade say the timing is off - and one bar reckons it could be the final straw that sinks nearby businesses. Nick James reports.

Wellington mayor, Tory Whanau, has quit the mayoralty race. Whanau announced on Monday night she won't be running for a second term as mayor and will instead run for the Māori Ward. Wellington Issues reporter Nick James spoke to Corin Dann.

There are calls for Wellington Water's boss to resign as the embattled organisation faces the prospect of legal action. The fallout from two scathing reports into the water provider is coming thick and fast after they found the region's ratepayers are being charged three times as much for water repairs as other areas of the country. Wellington issues reporter Nick James reports.

Homeowners across Wellington may have received a fright in their mailbox this week with the release of new ratings valuations. Nick James spoke to a range of economists to explain what it means and why homeowners shouldn't be too worried.

One of the Wellington region's busiest roads, State Highway Two through the Hutt Valley will be severely disrupted when Wellington Water digs up an aging sewerage pipe that runs under it. Nick James reports.
