On today's podcast: a new art exhibition is being launched tonight providing an intimate look at what it means to be 18 and a woman in New Zealand. It's 40 years since the Mt. Erebus disaster, our host Indira Stewart talks to Lizzie Oakes whose grandmother was on the flight. A New Zealand dairy start-up's crowdfunding campaign reached its $300,000 target before its launch party had even started. And top kiwi sailors Peter Burling and Blair Tuke are gearing up for a rare World Championship regatta in their home harbour, and are relishing the chance to host their sailing rivals.
