Both US Presidential Candidates are looking to finish their campaigns strong, as election day draws closer.

10 days to go, the latest polls have narrow margins in the seven key swing states, with just one to two percentage points separating Donald Trump and Kamala Harris.

US Correspondent Richard Arnold told Tim Beveridge the race is shaping up to be one of closest in America's history.

“Trump will hold a big rally today inside New York’s Madison Square Garden, while in the middle of the week, Vice-President Harris will speak near the Washington Monument – the very same place where then-President Trump spoke on the day of the January 6th attack.”

Gumboot Friday returns this week on 1st November, as communities come together to raise awareness for youth mental health around the country.

This year’s event involves the auctioning of the Hope Home, built and donated by Fowler Homes, with the proceeds going back into I Am Hope.

It comes as founder Mike King had his custom e-bike stolen from him during his I Am Climate ride around the country to raise awareness for youth climate anxiety, which has been returned to him in Tauranga.

Mike King joined Tim Beveridge to discuss more.

The long weekend's brought the worst out of boy racers.

Six people were arrested in Wairarapa, with fireworks, bottles, and rocks all hurled at Police.

The Government's already hinted tougher legislation could be on the way, which can't come soon enough for those who've had a gutsful.

Masterton mayor Gary Caffell told Tim Beveridge the gatherings are getting worse and worse.

“Unless the Government is willing to really get tough on these people, then we’re in a lot of trouble because somebody’s going to get killed. There’s no question about that.”

Millennials are facing more memory problems – but it's not exactly clear why.

The Boston Globe reports those in their 30s and 40s are becoming more forgetful.

Brain Research New Zealand co-director Cliff Abraham says there are many factors impacting memory - including anxiety, technology and Covid-19.

He says it's getting harder to remember, with more information and distractions coming in than ever before. 

Abraham told Tim Beveridge there are some simple ways to help you remember.

He says paying attention and repeating information is key.
