ep 260 - Album Bookends Part One
Oliver looks at examples of great album bookends, records with great opening and closing tracks. That’s plenty of examples of such from classic rock. The first that comes to mind is the Stone’s ‘Let It Bleed’, which begins with ‘Gimme Shelter’ and closes with ‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want'. Or, The Who’s ‘Who’s Next’. It starts with ‘Baba O’Riley’ and closes with ‘Won’t Get Fooled Again’. In this episode, and next week, we’re going to check out some favourite indie and alt rock album bookends. Follow @asonicyouthpodcast on Insta and Facebook. This show is part of the Free FM 89.0 YOUTH ZONE. Made with support of NZ on Air.

The Paleface Parabola - 04-11-2026
I’m a multi faceted junkie. Oh, feel no fret. I’m not going to rob you to feed my addictions or hook the neighborhood kids on Scripture, Politics, Sports, or any of the wide landscape of habits we humanoids indulge/overindulge in Which brings me to our chosen art form…..Cubist! Being silly again. It’s radio. In fact, I’m listening to Free FM as I type. I’m a loyalist by nature. So let the word for forth from this time and place about the Mystery Man’s and mine quest 2 radio addicts to suck you into our camp this week as Zappa said 25 songs of social and political importance. Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper did the Polka, Polka. Mink Deville sang of a Guardian Angel, The Dee Felice Trio, Amos Milburn, and Rosalie Cunningham were all on our team, and the Mystery Man took us to the finish line with OOmpah! Can’t wait till we get to do it again next week already. This two-hour melee broadcasts exclusively on Free FM [Hamilton, NZ] a member of New Zealand's CAMA Community Access Media Alliance

Equal Agenda Series 5 Ep 9 – Where you stand matters
What does it mean to feel represented in the place you call home? In this episode of Equal Agenda, Lucia is joined by Lynda Johnston to explore the relationship between place, identity, and politics, and how our lived experiences shape the way we navigate the world around us. From housing and transport to healthcare, education, and the spaces we move through every day, the decisions that shape our lives are political. Together, they discuss why there is no one-size-fits-all experience of Aotearoa, and why understanding diverse perspectives matters when making decisions that affect us all. Because where you stand matters, and whose voices are heard can shape the future we share.
