Welcome to the chilly side of winter fans and supporters of the podcast. This podcast is guaranteed to provide a few laughs and some incredible insight into one of our amazing artists who works behind the scenes, whether it be as a DJ on our local radio station or being an active musician throughout Whangarei. Please join me in welcoming to the podcast, Chris Foot.

Chris was a guest we had been wanting to have on the show for a while, and we couldn't thank him enough for taking time out of his day to sit down and talk with us. Running the incredibly important Badgers Den Records, he is a man who is incredibly passionate about music and is always willing to share his love for the art form plus occasionally you can find him spinning the vinyl with his own solo shows. This podcast was a lot of fun and filled with so much happiness

Chris was such a good sport and to hear him go from being an designer of mens wear to working for the NZ Music Commission to being a radio DJ with Beagle Radio and being a bit of legend. Make sure you check out his podcast and all of our other amazing guests we have had on!

Gidday to all our amazing and wonderful supporters; thanks for stopping by, and to people just joining us for the first time, we appreciate you checking us out. The podcast guest we have on is the king of hip-hop self-promotion; please join us in welcoming Whangarei Boys High alumni Andrew McKenzie!

We decided it was time to sit down with Andrew and have a good quality catch-up with him. He had last been on the podcast over 2 years ago, and it felt like the right time to bring him back on. He has such a great update on where he is at and has been making some big moves to re-establish local hip hop collective OBC. With 1 ep last year and a new one this year, he is definitely not slowing down his creative output

This is Producer Andrews's second time on the podcast, and boy, did he have some massive life updates! It's always great when we have former guests on, as we get to find out what they have been up to. Make sure you check out his podcast and our other many amazing and talented guests.

If this is your first time, thanks for stopping by and if you have been here before we appreciate you coming back and enjoying our little slice of the internet. Please join us in welcoming our last guest for the year, the wonderfully delightful and charming, Laura Worrall.

Laura describes herself as a figurative artist, but she is so much more than that. She was a great guest and had driven all the way to see us from Kaipara which was a true blessing. Charming, effervescent and genuinely funny, it was a real treat to have her on the podcast. Now, if we can also convince her partner to come on as well, that would be amazing, hint hint

Laura was such a fun and wicked person to have the pleasure of talking with. She makes things funny, and we share on some amazing laughs, which makes what we do so much easier and fun. Make sure you check out her podcast and so many other amazing guests!

Gidday to all our amazing and wonderful supporters, thanks for stopping by and to people just joining us for the first time, appreciate you checking us out. The podcast guest we have on is the wrestling king of self-promotion, please join us in welcoming former Whangarei boy Kurt Brown!

This podcast was definitely one of the most unique podcasts we have ever done as this blurs the line between character and genuine person or is it the same person with split personalities. Kurt shares his story with us from growing up in Auckland to moving to Whangarei and then back to Auckland to fulfil his dream of becoming a wrestler. Such an engaging person, he would constantly slip in and out of character (or did he) and we got to see the real man.

Kurt was such a pleasure to have on, and to see him effortlessly move from his #itskurtbrown persona to the genuine person was a real treat. If wrestling is something you even mildly enjoy, he is an upcoming talent to watch out for. Make sure you check out his podcast and our other many amazing and talented guests.
