You’ve spent your whole life feeling like something’s wrong with you. Here’s a radical thought: what if you’re not broken - just different? Welcome to Different, Not Broken, the no-filter, emotionally intelligent, occasionally sweary podcast that challenges the idea that we all have to fit inside neat little boxes to be acceptable. Hosted by L2 (aka Lauren Howard), founder of LBee Health, this show dives into the real, raw and ridiculous sides of being neurodivergent, introverted, chronically underestimated - and still completely worthy. Expect deeply honest conversations about identity, autism, ADHD, gender, work, grief, anxiety and everything in between. There’ll be tears, dead dad jokes, side quests, and a whole lot of swearing. Whether you're neurodivergent, neurotypical, or just human and tired of pretending to be someone you’re not, this space is for you. Come for the chaos. Stay for the catharsis. Linger for the dead Dad jokes.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked1985: A Novel by Dominic Hoey. Set in Auckland in the mid 80’s as the title suggests, this is the story of a young man coming of age in a dysfunctional family in Grey Lynn before it became gentrified, when the area and many of the people who lived in it were rough, not necessarily law abiding and where there seemed sometimes to be no future. Obi and his best friend Al discover a map which they believe leads to treasure, and which they hope will turn their fortunes around. The book is extremely atmospheric of the era, and took me right back. Terrific local fiction. High Heels and Gumboots by Rebecca Hayter. Rebecca is a sailor and a journalist, often combining the two things, who turned her back on Auckland and bought a property in Golden Bay, where she had grown up many years earlier. It’s a story about leaving the city and discovering independence and self sufficiency, a strong community to call her own, and finding ways to come to terms with the fractious relationship she had had with her mother, who was something of a legend in the area.

1 Dr Michelle Dickinson: nanotechnologist on scientists discovering a new colour with lasers 4:30
4:30 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked4:30
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedImagine seeing a colour so vivid, so unlike anything in nature, that your brain has no reference for it. That’s exactly what happened to five people who took part in an experiment published in the journal Science Advances this week. The newly perceived colour, which is described as a hyper-saturated blue-green shade, has been named olo, and it unlocked a visual experience that was previously impossible with natural light alone. To understand the experiment, we first need to understand how we see colour. At the back of your eye lies the retina, which contains three types of photoreceptor cone cells - S, M, and L cones -each tuned to different wavelengths of light: S cones respond to short, bluish wavelengths, M cones to medium, greenish wavelengths, L cones to long, reddish wavelengths. Together, they allow your brain to mix and interpret the colours of the world around you. But here’s the catch: in nature, the M and L cones are almost always activated together due to how their sensitivities overlap. This means it's essentially impossible to isolate just the M cones with regular light. As a result, a truly pure green, seen by stimulating only M cones, is something no one had ever seen - until now. The researchers used pinpoint lasers and advanced optics to stimulate individual photoreceptors in the human eye. Using a laser no more powerful than a standard green laser pointer, the team was able to target cone cells with surgical precision. First, they needed to create a cone map, a detailed image showing the exact arrangement of cone types on each participant’s retina. This map allowed the system to fire microscopic pulses of light solely at the M cones, leaving the others in darkness. When volunteers looked into the laser system, they described a colour that doesn’t exist in nature. Some said it was like a supercharged peacock green, others just stared in amazement. As soon as the laser was adjusted to stimulate even a few non-M cones, the olo colour vanished and was replaced instantly by the familiar green of the laser. The implications of this go far beyond a cool visual trick and open up new possibilities in both science and medicine. By allowing researchers to control cone cells at this level of precision, it may help us: Understand how colour vision truly works on a cellular level, Simulate what it's like to lose certain types of vision, helping us study degenerative eye conditions like macular degeneration, Explore how to expand human perception, possibly giving people with colour blindness access to colours they've never seen before or even enable humans to experience tetrachromacy. Sadly, most of us will never get to see olo ourselves, but its discovery is a powerful reminder of how much there is still to learn about the human body, even something as seemingly simple as colour.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedHave you ever found yourself nodding along in a noisy bar, pretending to understand your friend’s story, but truthfully, you’re just hoping for a quieter moment to catch the plot? You’re not alone. Hearing conversation in loud environments is something many of us struggle with. But thanks to a new study published in the journal Proceedings Of The Royal Society B - science might have a simple fix! All you need to do is tap your fingers to a beat, before the talking starts. The researchers explored whether rhythmic motor priming, like tapping your finger to a beat, could help your brain process speech more efficiently in noisy environments. Participants listened to long sentences buried in background noise. Right before the sentence began, some were asked to tap along to a beat at different speeds, like one tap every half-second or so. The other participants didn’t tap at all. After the sentence, all participants had to identify a word they’d just heard. They found that the people who tapped at a specific rhythm, around 1.5 to 2 times per second, did noticeably better at understanding the sentence, even in the noisy environment. It turns out that this tapping rate lines up with the natural pace of words in human speech (called the “lexical rate”) and helps your brain tune in more effectively. Think of it like syncing up your brain's "listening rhythm" with the speaker’s flow. The study also supports a growing idea in neuroscience: our motor system (the one that moves your body) also plays a role in how we listen. When we move rhythmically, even just by tapping a finger, it seems to help our brains track the rhythm of speech. It’s an easy, no-tech, zero-cost hack to try the next time you are in a noisy café or busy dinner party. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

1 Francesca Rudkin: We need to simplify Easter trading hours 3:22
3:22 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked3:22
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedIf you live in a city, there is something quite special about waking up on Good Friday - to the sound of silence. There are no cars on the road, no hum of traffic in the distance, no sound of people going about their day-to-day routines. My first thought on Friday was - it’s like Christmas Day. My second thought wasn’t as pleasant - it’s like lockdown. But the feeling was the same - how nice the world is when it pauses for a moment. But as much as I appreciate these few days a year when many get to stop, the crazy rush, chock-a-block carparks and supermarkets on Thursday and Saturday made me wonder whether it’s worth it. We don’t seem to be able to cope, or prepare, for supermarkets to shut. If we weren’t down on hot cross buns, I certainly wouldn’t have made the trip to my local. It’s lovely having Friday and Sunday off, but not, if the days around it are a nightmare. We have been talking about the inconsistencies and confusion around retail laws over Easter for as long as I can remember. What is open and shut depends on where you are in the country; sometimes where you are in a city. Don’t forget it’s the local authority which decides whether stores can open or not. It depends on what you’re selling. There are strange restrictions on what can be sold, and you must be selling something that people can’t put off buying until the next day. But you can get a haircut. And just to make it even more confusing - the Shop Trading Hours Act covers both public holidays, and days that aren’t public holidays, such as Easter Sunday. I think it’s time to let people decide for themselves how they want to spend their Easter. Whether they open their businesses, work or shop, or do none of the above and quietly go about their day. We’ve been arguing forever the merits of a day off and people being able to spend time with family and friends, or businesses being able to make the most of people wanting to spend money and get jobs done. We have spoken about employees facing pressure from their employers to work over Easter when they would prefer not to. And how there are plenty of employees who would happily take the benefits of working a public holiday. Let’s not forget online retailers can sell you whatever they like on these days. What a minefield of confusion. Let’s just bite the bullet, simplify the laws, make sure employees are protected, and let businesses decide if they open or not, and get on like it’s 2025 and not 1990. I’m also pleased sense is being shown around the purchase of alcohol over Easter. Labour MP Kieran McAnulty’s Bill to change rules around alcohol sales on ANZAC Day morning, Good Friday, Easter Sunday, and Christmas was voted through its first reading a week or so ago. Currently, people must order a meal before having an alcoholic beverage at a restaurant or pub. Once again, it’s all about simplifying the rules for both hospo, tourists, and Kiwis catching up at a restaurant over the holiday period. And there are a lot of businesses who would appreciate it being simpler to make a buck. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThe Death of Us by Abigail Dean. Isabel is a lead protagonist in this story, who throughout much of the book directly addresses the intruder who perpetrated a home invasion on her and her husband Edward when they were 30 years old and happily married, but those days are long gone. More than 20 years later, they reunite to attend the trial of a man finally charged with the crime, trying to reconcile their lives before, and after. This is gripping psychological drama. A Spy at War by Charles Beaumont. Simon Sharman is a former British spy gone rogue to track down the Chechen assassin who murdered his friend and business partner Evie. He’s a man alone, but his friends and former colleagues in Whitehall are never far away and it turns out there’s much more going on than his solitary pursuit of the bad guy – British intelligence has its fingers in several pies and it takes Simon a while to figure out his place in their schemes. Set amidst the war in Ukraine and the kind of news headlines we’ve seen for three years now, this story takes you right up close to some of the action and its commentary on US and European politics could be said to be prescient. It’s terrific espionage and if, like me, you love David McCloskey and I.S.Berry, this one’s for you. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

1 Dr Michelle Dickinson: nanotechnologist on the new research revealing the most bitter tasting substance ever 5:08
5:08 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked5:08
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedBitter flavours act as nature’s warning signs, evolved over hundreds of millions of years to steer us away from potentially toxic compounds. New research published this week in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry has just identified the most potent natural bitter compounds known to date and with it insights into why bitterness is so important. The star of this discovery is the mushroom Amaropostia stiptica, a non-toxic fungus renowned among foragers for its relentless, mouth-puckering bitterness. By guiding their isolation efforts with taste assays, the researchers extracted and characterised three previously unknown triterpene glucosides from this mushroom. Among the trio of new compounds, oligoporin D stole the show. In cell-based assays, oligoporin D activated the human bitter taste receptor TAS2R46 at astonishingly low concentrations of around 63 millionths of a gram per litre (roughly one gram dissolved in the volume of a million bathtubs) Why does this matter? Most entries in BitterDB hail from plants or human-made chemicals. Adding fungal compounds like oligoporin D enriches our chemical map of bitterness, revealing new scaffolds that challenge existing predictive models of taste receptor activation Bitter taste receptors predate flowering plants by some 300 million years. By discovering a potent fungal bitterant, researchers gain clues about ancient ecological interactions, did early vertebrates encounter fungi that drove the diversification of their taste receptors? Bitter receptors aren’t confined to our mouths - they’re sprinkled throughout the gut, lungs, heart, and even on blood cells. Understanding how natural bitterants like oligoporin D engage these extraoral receptors could unlock new avenues in digestion, immunity, and respiratory health The discovery of oligoporin D opens doors to practical innovations including the development of a natural, ultra-bitter coating for household chemicals or pharmaceuticals to prevent accidental ingestion.

3:26 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked3:26
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedHave I got an idea for Netflix - although I’m unlikely the first to have it. The shock announcement late this week that Peter Burling was leaving Team New Zealand made me wish Netflix would take us inside the world of match racing and the America’s Cup. It’s got everything that’s made F1 such a TV hit - big money, big personalities, big egos, big competition - with a solid dose of life-threatening risk thrown in. Who wouldn’t watch it? You would, right? I don’t really give a flying hoot whether the America’s Cup comes back to New Zealand. I don’t think a lot of Kiwis do, even if they have cherished memories of past Cups. I think we all now understand the nature of this sport. It’s driven by a wealthy few, and paid for by aspirational brands. It will do whatever it needs to thrive as an event. It doesn’t stop us getting behind the sailors and the incredible design teams when racing begins. But we don’t feel attached in the same way we once were. But back to my point - it would make for great TV. There’s always some kind of potential ‘blowup’ lurking near the running of the America’s Cup and Team New Zealand - location negotiations, rivalries and disputes, and fascinating characters all over it. In January, skipper Sir Ben Ainslie and INEOS chef Jim Ratcliffe suddenly split - and in the last couple of days, INEOS Britannia announced it was abandoning its challenge for the next America's Cup after failing to reach a settlement with Ainslie's team Athena Racing. Can’t you just see Jimmy Spithill being the resident expert talking us through it all? What good fun! The parting of Peter Burling and Team New Zealand is probably as simple as it sounds. This is what Team New Zealand Chief Executive Grant Dalton told Ryan Bridge on Drive on Friday when he asked what happened…. AUDIO: We just ran out of time basically….. we couldn’t get going… we’re in new territory trying to win it for the fourth time… We got to get going.” Who knows if Burling was aware of the time constraints on him to make a decision. Dalton says money and time were issues. Burling is apparently surprised it has come to this. But they both claim to be parting on good terms, and I believe it. Burling stepped up when he was 26 with a bunch of cyclists and his trusty sidekick Blair Tuke to win the America’s Cup in Bermuda. He then went on to defend it twice more. It’s an incredible record for such a young athlete, and it’s no surprise that in-between the four-year America’s Cup cycle he’s gone on to lead the Black Foils Sail GP team and set up an environmental charity. I wish him well. But once again, isn’t it fascinating to watch a team do whatever they have to do to win? If you hate participation certificates, you’ll love the cut throat nature of the America’s Cup. Just like we do with F1. Except when it comes to Liam Lawson of course.
