    This week we are delighted to have the newest voice of the Iron Duke Podcast with us, Ben Craven. His soothing voice and hot, sometimes justified, takes fit in well.

    In this episode we discuss peace talks, RUCs, electorates, education and the removal of te reo from easy reading books, more building and construction reform and New Zealand’s funky control towers.

    This week on the Iron Duke Podcast we talk about the end of modern learning environments, some positive progress on NCEA results, the announcement of the Tāmaki Makaurau by-election date, the for some reason spicy topic of gene technology, further severe weather events and how we are responding to them and the not-so-good unemployment rate for younger people.
