Seattle's plan to provide free school lunches to every public school student is facing new political opposition as City Council President Joy Hollingsworth proposes redirecting some of the funding toward food security programs serving Black children. This episode also examines Spokane's proposal to require landlords to provide air conditioning in rental units, a mandate critics warn could cost property owners hundreds of millions of dollars and increase housing costs. Finally, Federal Way is launching a major crackdown on illicit massage parlors tied to alleged human trafficking, with new ordinances aimed at reducing crime, protecting victims, and increasing business oversight.

Enormous amounts of packaging waste from the government's school lunch programme is going straight to the dump. An Audit Office report has highlighted high levels of waste in the programme and not just food. The School Lunch Collective provides 200,000 lunches a day, many of them in aluminium trays, with disposable utensils. The report said at the moment waste packaging from 57 percent of the schools goes straight to landfill. Jo Shanks from Ecosolutions works with Northland schools to minimise waste. She spoke to Lisa Owen.

A report into the revamped school lunch programme has found it saved money, but it's not clear whether it is meeting its main goals of reducing food insecurity and improving student achievement, because there's no robust monitoring. The report by the Auditor General revealed only about 50 percent of school meals were meeting nutritional standards last year. Associate Minister of Health, David Seymour spoke to Lisa Owen.

A report on the government's school lunch programme has raised questions about the quality of the food and significant waste. The auditor general's investigation says it's unclear whether the programme is improving food security and lifting student achievement because there's insufficient monitoring. Auckland University professor of population nutrition Boyd Swinburn spoke to Lisa Owen. 

The auditor general has raised questions over whether the government's school lunch programme is delivering on its goals. Porirua College has been providing lunches at a loss in order to meet their own standards. Principal Ragne Maxwell spoke to John Campbell.

David Seymour says the Auditor General's report on the Healthy School Lunches programme is one half of the story. Only 50% of last year's lunches complied with Education Ministry nutrition standards, and the Auditor General also took aim at safety issues, contingency planning and rollout. The Associate Education Minister claims the report's driven by former lunch providers upset about changes to the scheme. Seymour told Mike Hosking that the report doesn't compare the quality of the programme before and after he took over. He says they've been very critical in various ways, and he's happy to answer their criticism, but they haven't evaluated the whole programme. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

David Seymour claims the Auditor General has credibility issues, after releasing a scathing report into the Healthy School Lunches Programme. Only half of last year's lunches complied with the Ministry of Education's nutrition standards. Newstalk ZB senior political correspondent Barry Soper explained the data further.

What does it take for a young, progressive Democrat to run for the Ohio Statehouse in a district that leans Republican? This week on the Purple Political Breakdown, Ohio Edition, I sit down with Daquan Neal, the Democratic nominee for Ohio House District 39, covering Northern Montgomery County and the Dayton area: Vandalia, Englewood, Huber Heights, Clayton, Northridge, Fort McKinley, Harrison Township, and Butler Township. Daquan is 30 years old, a Central State University graduate, and a former staffer in both chambers of the Ohio General Assembly. He won his May 2026 Democratic primary and is running under the slogan "Our Time Is Now." We get into his core argument that Ohio is not a red state so much as a non-voting state, with more unaffiliated voters than registered Democrats and Republicans in his district, and what it would take to actually turn those voters out. From there we break down his policy stack: a state public option as a first step toward universal health care, a percentage-based "livable wage" built on the MIT Living Wage Calculator with price-gouging protections attached, a progressive marginal income tax to replace Ohio's new flat tax, and the bill he says he will introduce first, universal free school lunch for K-12. We also talk political messaging, why "progressive" lands differently than "socialist," and how he uses his Forever Curious civics program to close the political knowledge gap. This is a real voter-information conversation about who represents you in Columbus and why the Statehouse may matter more to your daily life than Washington.

The Ministry of Education has told schools receiving free lunches to not let children take home leftover meals. The Ministry has cited food safety concerns - and says uneaten meals should be returned to the supplier to avoid extra risks. Hora Hora school principal Pat Newman says his school's seen no incidents of any students getting ill from leftover food. "There's no proof - the only lunches that anyone's gotten ill from is the ones that were supplied from the Ministry in the first place. We actually take better care."

The Associate Education Minister's defending the school lunches programme despite dozens of early safety complaints. There were 21 food safety probes into the lunches from May 2024 to mid-November 2025. Some investigations came after reports of metal wire, fragments, or glass were discovered in food. David Seymour told Mike Hosking it's 21 lunches out of around 13 million. He says the issues are from when Government overtook Labour's scheme or the first term of their new scheme, which faced some teething issues.

The caption was, “Drink up America. #DrinkWholeMilk.” Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. posted what seems to be an AI video that shows him being transported to a nightclub when he drinks milk. The caption is, “when you take that first sip of whole milk.” Whole milk is also at the top of the new food pyramid. But what's all this for? How do we make sense of this push for whole milk, especially when milk has some unsavory ideological associations?Brittany gets into it with Yasmin Tayag, staff writer for The Atlantic who covers science and the future of food, and Andrea Freeman, Second Century Chair Professor of Law at Southwestern Law School and author of the book Ruin Their Crops on the Ground: The Politics of Food in the United States from the Trail of Tears to School Lunch.Want more about modern health?

What if changing what kids eat at school could transform their behavior, boost learning, and even save lives? Studies show that when kids swap junk food for real, nourishing meals, behavior problems drop, focus improves, and learning soars—with one study finding a 100% reduction in suicides among youth simply by changing their diet. Across the country, schools are proving that scratch-cooked, colorful meals made from whole ingredients can fit tight budgets, reduce waste, and make kids excited to eat. By putting nutritious food at the center of education, we can help raise a generation that's healthier, happier, and ready to learn. In this episode, Jill Shah, Sam Kass, Kimbal Musk, and I talk about the powerful connection between nutrition and education, showing that healthy school meals can transform not just kids' diets but their futures. Jill Shah is the President of the Shah Family Foundation, which drives innovative work at the intersection of education, healthcare, and community in Boston. Her leadership focuses on improving access to healthy school food, supporting neighborhood food equity, and fostering collaboration between schools and healthcare to strengthen children's physical, emotional, and social well-being. Before launching the foundation, Jill was a successful entrepreneur involved in several internet startups, including iXL, RxCentric, and Mercator Software, and later founded Jill's List, which she sold to MINDBODY in 2013. A graduate of Providence College, she now serves on the boards of the Red Sox Foundation, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, the Museum of Fine Arts, Belmont Hill School, and the Winsor School. Jill's commitment to community innovation has earned her honors such as the Boston Chamber of Commerce Distinguished Bostonian Award and the Playworks Game Changer Award. Sam Kass was senior policy advisor for nutrition policy in the Obama Administration and is currently an investor in several food technology start-ups. One of Michelle Obama's longest-serving advisors, Sam was the executive director of her Let's Move initiative and helped create the first major vegetable garden at the White House since Eleanor Roosevelt's Victory Garden. He is a graduate of the University of Chicago and was trained by one of Austria's greatest chefs, Christian Domschitz. Kimbal Musk is the co-founder of The Kitchen, an American bistro with restaurant locations in Boulder, Denver, Chicago, and soon Austin. Now marking its twentieth anniversary, The Kitchen serves thoughtfully sourced, Seasonal American Shared Plates with global influences. Musk is also the co-founder of Big Green, a philanthropic organization devoted to getting every American growing food. His personal mission is to empower and invest in the next generation who are building a healthier, happier future. The Wall Street Journal has called him a "cheerful crusader for real food," and The Guardian has lauded how he “takes the tech entrepreneur ethos and applies it to food.” Musk has been named a Global Social Entrepreneur by the World Economic Forum. Musk currently sits on the board of Tesla Inc. and formerly served on the board of Chipotle Mexican Grill and SpaceX. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.
