The Boy in the Water
Nothing is what it seems in this highly addictive series about a young boy drowning in Gore. While the police rule his death as a tragic accident, investigative journalist Melanie Reid unravels the case in an attempt to really find out what happened to little Lachie Jones. This is by far one of Melanie Reid’s best pieces of work and make sure you binge-listen to get up to speed before the inquest resumes. A thorough and thoughtful listen.

The Curve
I’m no longer saving for my retirement – I’m looking forward to my 20-year holiday. Kiwis Sophie Hallwright and Victoria Harris are changing the stereotype that money conversations are typically boring, and for men in suits. The duo has inspired me to dip a toe in the world of investing. If you want a podcast that’s both educational and humorous, The Curve is for you. Learn about ethical investing, why we should be talking about our salaries and what the heck is Crypto?

Black Sheep
Con artists, abortionists, multiple murders, Musket Wars. Black Sheep gives us an insight into Aotearoa history through a judicial lens by telling the story of some of the ‘villains’ from the 1800s through to the 1900s. With voice actors and expert commentary, the stories come to life and look at how justice was handed down due to societal values of the time and asks how these people would be judged today.
– Sheryl Haitana, Editor, New Zealand Dairy Exporter
