After a century on air, ZB has become a staple for hundreds of thousands of Kiwis. 

Whether they listened to the early days of 1ZB, or tuned in after its transition to the news powerhouse that is Newstalk ZB, most people have at least one memory associated with the station. 

Kevin Milne is no different, and joined Jack Tame to share a few of his.

The ever-expanding Manuka Phuel Synthony Festival is officially returning in March next year. 

The first performers have been announced, and on performing alongside the likes of Paul Okenfold and Ladyhawke is New Zealand’s own L.A.B. 

They’ve gone from strength to strength since their conception a decade ago and show no signs of slowing down – continuing to punch out hit after hit. 

Frontman Joel Shadbolt told Jack Tame they’d been approached to play at Synthony before, and they finally agreeed. 

“It’s one of those gigs that, yeah, like you said, it’s just massive, y’know, and the production and the crowd and every year it just seems to get bigger and bigger,” he said. 

“It’s one of the biggest stages that we would have played on.”

Auckland's redeveloped Western Springs Bowl is hosting its first concert since its $2.5 million transformation.    

UK popstar Olivia Dean's appearing in the former Western Springs Stadium on October 17th – the show moved from Spark Arena due to high ticket demand. 

Chris Schulz has heard word that it could be the biggest show by the end of the summer – bigger than Guns N’ Roses, Robbie Williams, The Foo Fighters, and System of a Down. 

He joined Jack Tame to chat about Dean’s rising star and the inside look at Western Springs he got before it officially opens to the public.

The Girl With The Seven Lives by Vikras Swarup  

Devi is a fighter. Growing up in the slums of Delhi, she has learnt that survival comes at a cost—and naturally, that means she’s made a few enemies along the way.

Now she’s being held captive, her life up for sale in an online auction, where the highest bidder will determine her fate.

With her existence hanging in the balance, Devi proceeds to give her captor ‘a confession to beat all confessions’ – as over the course of a single night, Devi unveils the secrets of her seven extraordinary lives.

Devi is the ultimate survivor – a girl from the gutters who dares to rewrite her own destiny. But, like Sheherazade in the Arabian Nights, will she survive the longest night of her life? 

  

Time Travel For Beginners by Jaclyn Moriarty  

On a bustling road in Sydney, Australia, lies a nondescript storefront known simply as the Time Travel Agency. Inside, you’ll be welcomed by the smell of fresh-brewed coffee, a selection of baked goods…and the question, Where in time do you wish to go?

The guidelines are simple: you can go whenever you wish into the past, and there’s no fear of altering the present. Have tea with Jane Austen, scream at a Beatles concert, witness the Olympics in ancient Greece. Perhaps a more personal trip? Visit your long-lost grandmother, recapture the heady days of your youth, return to the idyllic time when your teen was a babbling baby—or watch yourself make the one decision that changed everything.

Is it a hoax? And if it’s real, what’s the catch?

When single mother Anna is offered a job at the agency, she glimpses the possibility of happiness. Meanwhile, Teddy’s a customer hoping to untangle his recently imploded marriage. And Jade, who has a deeply buried secret, despises the agency for offering false hope.
