The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley. In a near future London the Government's experimenting with time travel, bringing five people from various points in history into the 21st century where they're confronted by the internet, dating apps and Spotify. Implausible though this sounds, it's fun, highly entertaining and works brilliantly - and I never, ever read time travel but have happily made an exception. It's wonderful and highly, highly recommended. Nothing Significant to Report by Dario Nustrini. Dario was just a year out of school when he decided to join the NZ Army, with absolutely no idea what to expect. This is hilarious and highly entertaining - he tells about the back breaking exercises designed to grind down the new recruits, to roleplaying in an SAS manhunt – in a series of self deprecating stories about misfits, mayhem and camaraderie.

In Leaders Getting Coffee episode 14, our guest is Tenby Powell, who founded Kiwi K.A.R.E. (Kiwi Aid & Refugee Evacuation) which was established in response to the humanitarian and medical crisis unfolding in war-torn Ukraine. A Retired Colonel in the NZ Army, he's also a former CEO and investor who, dissatisfied with the lack of progress in his hometown of Tauranga, successfully ran for the Mayoralty in 2019. Tenby talks with passion about the role of the military in our lives, how the army can help youth offenders programmes, and the need to provide for those young people once such programmes are completed. The discussion covers the transitions from military man to corporate leader and the process that saw entrenched positions in Tauranga resolved within a few short months of his appointment as Mayor. Finally, we learn about what is going on, on the ground in Ukraine, and how Kiwis are making a big difference to the people they touch. And as always, we wrap up the podcast by asking Tenby what he would do if he was Prime Minister for a day? His answer sounds like a lot of fun. Tenby Powell is another impressive leader with a fascinating leadership story.

Buddha Heart, Devil's Hand- The difference between Special Forces and Normal Humans Gregg PUP Johnson http://pakari.nz/ Welcome to the sequel!! After such a popular show the first time around, it was a necessity to have Pup back on to share his knowledge, in order to help others. We spoke about a wide range of subjects, so strap in! Starting with the difference between an SF Operator mindset -where they make life and death decisions and movements multiple times every single day vs a regular cop or civilian who may never be faced with such an inhuman choice - we progressed to how Pakari is helping the NZ Army develop it's people's resilience and mindsets. We talked about transition ( from military and/or sporting worlds) and the effects of Purpose, Belonging and Identity. A life of service changes a person, and shapes his/her mind and it's imperative to realise this going forward so we can grow and flourish afterwards.

A survey of Napier Port's operating assets has revealed only minor damage, with further assessments to take place throughout the coming week. As a lifeline asset Napier Port is providing facilities to the NZ Army on port, enabling them to set up a local base and assist with the region's response. Napier Port has deployed on-port generation to support critical infrastructure, including refrigerated containers. Todd Dawson is the CEO of the port and joins with an update.

Parts of the Hawke's Bay region remain cut off today without water, power, or cell coverage, with officials scrambling to find out more about the devastation in the cold light of day. Two people are confirmed dead, others are still trapped or awaiting supplies, and officials have “big gaps of knowledge” as to the state of isolated areas. One woman died after a landslip on her property in northern Hawke's Bay and another person's body has been found on a storm-ravaged beach. Central Hawke's Bay District Council chief executive Doug Tate said it was “pretty brutal out there” and said council's thoughts went out to everybody affected by Cyclone Gabrielle. “The scale of it is just incredible, really,” he said. Council still was not sure of the state of some areas in the region due to the breakdown in communications - caused by damage to fibre lines providing mobile coverage to the area. “Out toward the coast we've got big gaps of knowledge. It's sort of funny, in a normal day losing a bridge is a really big deal and pretty much by the end of yesterday it was just another bridge that we're just adding to the list.” There are about 150 houses in lower Waipawa that are underwater, he said. “You know, people kind of laughed at us when we said ‘look guys, you need to get out', and in the space of an hour and a half, not even half an hour, we had nearly a metre and a half of water through some properties.” Damage to farm areas was a big focus for council, “trying to get some reconnaissance over that wider area”. He also said parts of the region had no water supply and could expect not to have any for several days. “Both of our treatment plants have been submerged quite significantly,” he said. “It's going to be pretty hard going for those urban areas in that context as well.” Tate said his was one of the first homes in Waipukurau to be flooded. There was “so much still do to” and “still a lot we don't know”, he said. “You will have heard the messages from everybody else: absolute caution, stay home . . . listen out to the key messaging, that's kind of a really big thing for us that we're continuing to promote. “If people were safe at home and didn't need to go anywhere, the ‘best thing to do is just stay there', he said. He called on people to check on their neighbours if able. Rescues continuing Posts on social media said a group of 42 people were trapped on a hill on Korokipo Rd in Omahu. “The rescue helicopter will be taking them food and water this morning, I'm not sure of a rescue plan at this stage but the water has started to recede around them,” the post said. The New Zealand Defence Force regular and reserve forces have helped rescue about 200 people in Esk Valley, Napier, and wider Hawke's Bay. As of 8.40am the NZ Army teams overall have rescued about 200 people, with the number still climbing. An Esk Valley, Hawke's Bay, resident is plucked to safety by Defence Force personnel in an NH90 helicopter. Photo / Defence Force Three NH90 helicopters responded to the Hawke's Bay area as part of a multi-agency response, with one of the tasks involving recovering people from the rooftops of their homes in Esk Valley. Other tasks have involved moving about 60 to 100 people from Hastings, as well as moving medical supplies around the region. NZDF released photos of people being plucked from rooftops in the region as floodwaters raged below, and carrying locals through swamped streets in boats. Wairoa cut off Wairoa is cut off on all sides today, with dramatic photos from Hawke's Bay Civil Defence revealing the inundation of the town and the challenges facing its embattled residents. Word came out via the Starlink system, a standalone wi-fi connection that is only accessible to the Emergency Operations Centre. Civil Defence says the rest of the Wairoa District is still without access to mobile and wi-fi connections. Due to being completely cut off, Wairoa has only one day's worth of food and enough drinking water for two days, Civil Defence said. The Wairoa River has flooded up to a quarter of the town. An RNZAF reconnaissance flight was to be sent, and Emergency Response minister Kieran McAnulty said Wairoa was particularly of concern. Aerial view of flooding in Wairoa. Photo / Hawke's Bay Civil Defence Power, internet, phone coverage out Thousands were left without power yesterday when a Transpower substation in Redclyffe was flooded. The company warned it could be days or even weeks before power was restored. Yesterday afternoon they were able to restore some power to about 27,000 households across Hawke's Bay and Gisborne, but it is insufficient to provide power to the rest. Napier mayor Kirstin Wise said the latest information they'd received from Transpower was that electricity was “likely to be a number of days away. “We're communicating with them constantly to try and get some clarity around what that means,” she said. Meanwhile communications were “incredibly patchy” and Wise said the primary source of information is the radio. “Cellphone coverage and internet coverage is pretty much non-existent,” she said. “That lack of communication is really dire and it does elevate everybody's feelings of anxiousness. “If I'm completely honest we're actually feeling pretty isolated at the moment and yeah I have been discussing that with the team this morning about how we can start accessing these [state of national emergency] resources at a national level because we don't have the resources on hand here to be able to do it alone.” Spark said they had satellite units en route to Napier via helicopter and were dispatching an additional 10 generators. “Communication will be limited to voice and text and congestion will occur – however the priority is to reconnect the region as quickly as possible,” Spark said. Level five water restrictions in place The “critical thing” about the power outage was that it affected water supplies and water treatment, meaning people are being asked to follow “level five water restrictions”. Wise said this meant people should be having sponge baths instead of showers and only flush the toilet if absolutely necessary. Level five is defined as water only being used for consumption or sanitary purposes. Council warned on Facebook its water plants in Waipawa and Waipukurau would run out of water from 10pm yesterday and it could be several days before supply is restored. “This means you are going to need to collect bottled water and water for household activities like drinking, cooking and washing. This is going to be particularly challenging over the next few days for sanitary services,” the post said. People can access water at: Waipawa Municipal Theatre on Kenilworth St Otane Hall Racecourse Road Waipukurau, opposite GM Panelbeaters Council has also issued a boil water notice for Otane, Waipawa and Waipukurau, which will continue for the foreseeable future. Evacuations and where to go Council issued an evacuation order this morning for Te Awa, Napier and expected to issue more for the surrounding suburbs. Multiple suburbs were evacuated yesterday as flooded rivers poured over stopbanks and on to floodplains. The suburb of Esk Valley suffered widespread flooding and required multiple rescues as people sought refuge on the roofs of their homes, with the water lapping barely centimetres below. Many evacuation orders were lifted last night as floodwaters receded. The Waikare River Bridge near Putorino collapsed in wild floodwaters caused by Cyclone Gabrielle. Photo / Rosie Tong Hastings Mayor Sandra Hazlehurst said it was hard to believe the devastation to property and the roading network, including bridges. The council is dealing with an influx of people from flooded homes. “We've got so many people displaced, so many people in our emergency centres and shelters. We are setting out two more emergency centres, people are flocking in from across our district.” Evacuations centres can be found at: Hastings Flaxmere Community Centre Te Aranga Marae, Flaxmere EFKS Church, Flaxmere Cook Islands Centre, Flaxmere Hawke's Bay Environment Centre, Hastings Waipatu Marae Hastings Sports Centre (at capacity) Ascend Global Church, Omahu (at capacity) Napier Rodney Green Events Centre, Latham St St Joseph's Māori Girls' College (at capacity) Pukemokimoki Marae (at capacity) Central Hawke's Bay Centralines Stadium Waipawa Municipal Theatre Pōrangahau Hall Tikokino Community Hall Takapau Hall Wairoa Taiho Marae Ruakituri Resident Hall Wall Memorial Hall Kahungunu Marae (Nuhaka) See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey team, Welcome back to another episode of A Soldiers Five. In this episode I talk to Si, a soldier who completed two decades of service as a Movements Operator with the NZ Army. Fun fact: Si was actually my boss during one of my postings AND we happened to serve together in Afghanistan. I really appreciated the way Si approached small teams leadership, and during our time serving together he was one of the few people where he was both a senior, mentor and mate. I took a lot away from my time learning from him, hence why I really wanted to get him on and sharn for a bit. Had a good chat, really good to get his experiences working with the Royal Marine Commandos as well as his experience assisting in the retrieval of Byron Solomon, a sailor who tragically passed away in an accident on board HMNZS Canterbury. I also don't know how many times I've said um so let me know and i'll donate some cash to no duff. https://www.instagram.com/popsmoke_adventures/ Enjoy!

Scott was my Physical Training Instructor (PTI) in the NZ Army and then also in the 1st New Zealand Special Air Service Group when I was a Commando. Scott's goal after becoming a PTI was always to become the “Head Trainer” for the SAS and he accomplished this in 2006 and served there for 6 years- improving the application of Physical Training for the Tier 1 Special Forces Unit and I can say from personal experience he did a great job. He is a man who epitomises the “Unrelenting g Pursuit of Excellence” and is a wealth of knowledge about functional elite fitness and now uses this to improve.success in corporates, teams and individuals. Scott takes what looks at first sight to be an unconventional and brutal approach in applying his craft, but you will find out in the show, after training such high performing individuals and warfighters, you will find his approach refreshingly honest and applicable. Listen in for the story I tell about when we had him in the Kill House with live rounds whizzing past his head, he has a great sense of humour and it has been an honour to watch his successful journey and positivity.

SO as always with Special Forces types, we pushed on and achieved the mission objective ( Sorry Clint) and it turned out to be an amazing show. We spoke about how Special Forces skills can carry over to everyday life and self defence. The differences and similarities between the units they have all worked for, and worked alongside. Pat served with the US Green Berets, Served in the Cold War in Berlin and Soviet Germany and then on to 12 yrs in Delta Force and finished the Sergeants Major Academy. Joe served in the NZ Army, Passed NZSAS Selection and Cycle of training. He then served with 4 RAR Commandos and went on to pass Australian SAS Selection and served with them for 5 yrs. They speak with such wisdom and humility and I am sure you will be surprised at their openness. From Seal Team 6, Ranger Battalion, FBI HRT, British SAS, US Airforce JTAC to name a few- they have worked with them all. Watch out for the middle of. the show where I may be the only person who has stumped Pat with a question!! It is hilarious. This show is a rare insight into the mindset of former Special Forces Operators and how we are currently using our knowledge, training and skills to help others, ourselves, and our loved ones. Thanks to Pat and Joe once again for being guests and creating such awesome content for the world audience and I look forward to the next time we chat.

As one would expect from a podcast between three close allies, the importance of interoperability, shared values and trust between partners is discussed in length. They both talk passionately and openly about the importance of self-awareness and share with us how they both lacked this in their early careers, highlighting that young bravado masked their weaknesses as leaders. Next, they speak about the importance of culture and discuss leaders' role in shaping it. They emphasise that although leaders shape the culture, the symbiotic relationship between them means that the leader is also shaped and developed by the culture itself. Finally, they discuss the role history and traditions play in shaping today's leaders, and how, as their respective organisations move forward, they should never forget the past and those that have led before them.
