Climate change conference COP29 has wrapped up with a significant but controversial final agreement.

Negotiations came down to the wire over a US$1.3 trillion to help finance poorer countries to deal with the impacts of climate change and cut emissions.

But, only about $300 billion of that target will come from direct payments or loans from richer countries – which has sparked backlash from nations in the direct line of fire from rising sea levels and increasing temperatures.

So what does this deal actually mean, and is getting a deal better than no deal at all?

Today on The Front Page, University of Canterbury Professor of Political Science and International Relations, Bronwyn Hayward is with us to discuss the details.

While The Front Page is on summer break, we’re taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top-rated episodes from the podcast in 2024.   

June 20 this year marked 30 years since five members of the Bain family in Dunedin were found dead in their family home.  

The one survivor, David, would be convicted of murdering his parents and three siblings.  
He served 13 years in prison before the Privy Council quashed his convictions, and he was found not guilty on all charges at a retrial in 2009.   

For the anniversary in June, we spoke to long-time Bain advocate Joe Karam for an exclusive chat reflecting on his three decades linked to the case, as well as exploring our obsession with the case with AUT University’s Professor of Pop Culture, Dr Lorna Piatti-Farnell.  

New episodes return January 13th.

While The Front Page is taking its summer break, we will be shining a spotlight on some of the biggest podcasts from the New Zealand Herald network over the last year.  

In 2022, BusinessDesk journalist Murray Jones investigated the finances of the New Zealand branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints – better known as the Mormons.  

That investigation sparked a lot of feedback on social media, including a number of posts that suggested there was more to the Church that first thought. 

That led to Heaven’s Helpline, a NZ Herald podcast that investigated the Church and how it has built a system that protects its wealth and reputation – and shields sexual predators from the law.   

You can listen to half of the first episode of Heaven’s Helpline now, and find the full series on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.

While The Front Page is on summer break, we’re taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top-rated episodes from the podcast in 2024.   

Travelling is often a stressful experience, particularly over the Christmas break and summer holidays when it seems we’re all rushing to get away.  

Those trips aren’t made easy when violent turbulence or technical errors have an impact. 

In 2024, stories of extreme turbulence popped up around the world, including one case in April when a man onboard an Air New Zealand flight from Bali broke his leg, while in May, a violent Singapore Airlines flight saw dozens hospitalised and one passenger die.   

That’s on top of multiple stories locally of domestic and international flights impacted by landing and technical issues.  

To get insight on this, in July, we spoke to the chief executive of Massey University’s School of Aviation, Ashok Podavul about whether we should be concerned – and stay tuned for advice on what you can do if things go wrong for you this summer from Consumer NZ’s Jessica Walker.  

New episodes return January 13th.
