The internet is filled with a wide array of things – more than any one person could experience in their entire life. 

However, as the internet has developed, spaces dedicated to children have been eroded – gone are the days of Club Penguin and flash games, replaced with adult and advertiser friendly spaces. 

What this has resulted in is the exposure of generations of children and young people to harmful —sometimes outright illegal— content.  

The Classification Office recently released a report delving into what young people are exposed to online, speaking with ten different groups, ranging in age from 12-25. 

Dougal Sutherland unpacks the results, and the impact the exposure has had on young people.

Dougal Sutherland: What are children being exposed to online?

A Bay of Plenty-based group is turning a pest problem into a community solution. 

Hunt for Good is a not-for-profit that culls wild deer, donating the venison and wild game meat to community groups and food banks.  

It’s volunteer run, and helps farmers manage the wild deer population on their land in a sustainable way. 

It was founded by Jasper Osborne at the end of 2024, and in that time they’ve culled nearly 2000 wild deer and donated over 16 thousand kilograms of mince to those in need. 

“A lot of farmers are under a lot of stress ... and if they’ve got huge number of deer running around their properties, then that stock, they can’t have, so that’s really profit they can’t have,” Osborne told Jack Tame.  

“If we can help them by eliminating some of the issues for them, and also turning it into a food source for the community, then it’s a double win."

Canterbury residents are battling to save their golf course.  

Wolfbrook Properties has bought the 80-hectare site of Pegasus Golf Course and unveiled plans for redevelopment. 

Locals —including cricket legend Sir Richard Hadlee— are raising concerns about the scale and speed, particularly if plans go through the fast-track process. 

But Kevin Milne thinks more than just the locals should be fighting for the golf course – he reckons the rest of the country should get behind it as well.

The daughter of Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl has released her debut album. 

‘Be Sweet To Me’ is the first album from Violet Grohl, with a sound reminiscent of 1990s alternative rock.  

Though it’s primarily rock, the eleven tracks do feature elements of heavy metal, folk, and jazz, Grohl citing the Breeders, PJ Harvey, Pixies, Soundgarden, and Cocteau Twins as her primary influences. 

Chris Schulz joined Jack Tame to share his thoughts on the album.
