The Tragically Hip Top Forty Countdown: Song Seventeen - Gillian from Palmerston Conversation HighlightsJillian shares personal stories that trace her life through Hip albums and live shows—from small-town house parties to big amphitheatre gigs, from heartbreaks to healing. She unpacks how certain songs surfaced at pivotal moments, guiding her through grief, reconciliation, motherhood, and joy. Her insights are full of warmth, humour, and a genuine love for what this band means to her and so many others.About Our GuestGillian's journey with The Hip began in rebellion against her twin brother's music taste, blossomed through hard-won independence, and became the emotional backbone of her adult life. From dancing onstage with a banana shaker to naming her Jeep Cordelia, she lives and breathes Hip fandom. She's a primary teacher, a deep thinker, and a proud member of what she beautifully calls the Church of Gord.Next WeekWe're staying in classic territory with a big one. Tune in to hear who joins us for song #16 as we edge closer to the top ten. It's about to get real.Pull Quote"I credit my love of The Hip with helping me reconcile with my brother. One song—‘Are We Family?'—played at just the right time. I don't know if that's the universe, but I call it the Church of Gord."Get Involved

"They were everywhere, every corner you looked in." That said by a woman on a suburban street under siege from a stray cat colony who is calling for change so residents can reclaim their properties. Larissa Rzoksa wants the Animal Welfare act amended so any dog or cat - that is not registered for breeding or has a medical exemption - is desexed. She lives on Cecil Place in Palmerston North, where dozens of felines descend every breeding season. Jimmy Ellingham has the story.

rWotD Episode 2845: Waihemo / Shag River Welcome to Random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia’s vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Sunday, 16 February 2025 is Waihemo / Shag River.The Waihemo / Shag River is located in Otago in the South Island of New Zealand. It rises in the Kakanui Range, flowing southeast for 75 km (47 mi), or 50 kilometres (31 mi) before reaching the Pacific Ocean on the south side of Shag Point / Matakaea, 7.5 km (4.7 mi) east of Palmerston. The Dunback Branch railway that operated from the 1880s to 1989 largely followed the route of the river from its junction with the Main South Line near Shag Point township to its terminus in Dunback.The small- to medium-sized river has been adversely affected over the past decades by farming practices in the area. Much of its length is overgrown with willows, and during the summer its flow can become significantly reduced.In 1985, the name of the river was gazetted by Land Information New Zealand as Shag River (Waihemo). In August 2021, the name was officially amended to Waihemo / Shag River.Waihemo means a 'river that has gone away' or 'dwindled'. Early whalers named the river after the common seabird.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:33 UTC on Sunday, 16 February 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Waihemo / Shag River on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Danielle.

Marokopa fugutive Tom Phillips and his three children have apparently managed to evade police yet again after a "credible" sighting by hunters who passed them in bush, filming the family on their phone. The close encounter happened last Thursday at about 7pm. Palmerston man John McOviney said his 16 year old grandson was one of the hunters who saw Phillips near Coutts road north of Awamarino in Waikato. Australian David Craig was a former Detective Superintendent and federal agent, and spoke to Lisa Owen.

Dundee United are reeling from a second cup exit in the space of eight days, having been unable to crack Stone. Can the Tangerines respond with a win at Cappielow? And what German legend received a name-check when analysing the rise of Kai Fotheringham in the aftermath of his Palmerston double? Meanwhile, Dundee succumbed to defeat against Hibernian – but positivity abounds as it is suggested we are watching the best Dee outfit in 20 YEARS. Owen Beck scored his first goal for the Dens Park outfit, prompting more comparisons with a young Andy Robertson. With George Cran absent, Alan Temple and Graeme Finnan join host Tam Duthie to talk football in the City of Discovery.
The Palmy Party was an event like no other – was this just a dying convulsion of Bruce's alcohol pickled brain, or was there some cold hard reasoning behind the bizarre and hugely costly fling, set on with no more than 24 hours notice, in the sleepy New Zealand city of Palmerston North?Schools and businesses closed at the snap of a fat finger, 8000 brethren willingly or otherwise converged on this obscure spot by plane coach car or prison van, were fed on the best rib-eye steak, drowned their pain with top shelf spirits, while serenaded by country and western ballads, all in the Holy Precincts of the Meeting Hall and all for what………?Journalist and author Craig Hoyle and Olive-leaf network founder Lindy Jacomb take us deep into the world of New Zealand PBCC politics, from the 1860s forwards to today, and reveal a rebellious and independent streak that has ever been a thorn in the side of the so called “Great Men” of the Plymouth or Exclusive Brethren. With over 8000 members and many highly successful businesses, the PB Kiwis have considerable soft power within the “ecosystem” – yet they have never produced an universal leader. Is the harsh and increasingly eccentric reign of brash Australian Bruce D Hales going to be the last straw for the beautiful islands of Aotearoa? Are they preparing to throw off the chains of Hales and go their own sweet way? Was the Palmy Party a desperate, last ditch attempt to woo them back into Bruce's sweaty embrace? Listen up, dear friends, and decide for yourself!

Leyla Kazim examines the growing influence apps, maps and lists are having on restaurant recommendations, food writing and the way we eat. Leyla sits down for lunch with Michael O'Shea from the restaurant recommendation app Jacapo, ‘the social network for people who love food,' to hear why he thinks apps like his have the potential to reshape the way people find new places to eat. She meets Jonathan Nunn from online magazine Vittles in Green Lanes, North London, where they discuss the rapid trajectory of lists and map-based recommendations, and what these developments mean for the changing landscape of food media in the UK. We get the thoughts of three restaurant critics on the subject: The Telegraph's William Sitwell, The Evening Standard's Jimi Famurewa and Elite Traveler magazine's Andy Hayler. In Glasgow producer Robbie Armstrong meets Julie Lin at her restaurant Ga Ga, where she talks about the way apps and tech now give restaurateurs instant feedback, and why she welcomes the social media reviewer as much as the classic critic. In Edinburgh, Robbie sits down for lunch with The Times Scotland Restaurant critic Chitra Ramaswamy to hear why she welcomes the democratisation of food reviewing. She outlines why critics continue to play a crucial role, and explains the ethics behind her approach to criticism. Social media influencers mvlondonreviews discuss the blurred lines that can emerge between restaurants and social media reviewers, and the reasons they set clear boundaries before a review. Finally, The Palmerston's James Snowdon recounts the game-changing power a restaurant critic still holds. Presented by Leyla Kazim. Produced by Robbie Armstrong.

I couldn't have got this far in the PhD without the support of you lovely patrons, and this is my way of saying thanksss, so why not nerd out with us?Oh boy, it's finally time! Now you get to see what I've been working on over the Christmas break, an extremely chunky and detailed twelve part series examining Anglo-American relations from 1838-1846. Expect fractious diplomacy, war scares, major tensions, close calls and settlements which dramatically affected how each side saw the other, with consequences that are felt to this day.In this introductory episode, I set the scene and justify my interest in this period, as well as explaining why YOU should care. We look at the British destruction of the Caroline, and question how this incident helped fan the flames of American hostility towards London, while Palmerston...shrugged his shoulders. The British Foreign Secretary, you see, had his hands full with keeping the Ottoman Empire propped up, while he also kept his eye on France. We're just beginning our journey in this fascinating period, and I can't wait to bring you along for the ride! A huge thanksss to all of my lovely patrons for supporting this show for so long.
