Blockbuster rolls at midday, Saturday... East FM
Lights, camera, action… Johnny Andrews – Johnny be good – is a pop-culture fanatic, movies and music in equal measure, and the man from the popular My Movie DNA podcast is tomorrow’s guest DJ spinning film soundtracks on the She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, midday to 4pm (NZ time) on East FM.
A while back, Johnny invited me to be his guest on My Movie DNA, which was a very enjoyable show podcasts.apple.com... - talking the cinema experience.
To reciprocate, he’s guest DJing and focusing on movie soundtracks, an area, it’s fair to say, he’s an expert. If you follow him on social media, you’ll know he’s almost a daily consumer of cinematic creations, and soundtracks, on vinyl, top of his set-lists.
In between on SBR, there’ll no doubt be chatter about the songs being played, and fun and learned banter on the worldly subjects of the day. Projecting in technicolour.
East FM is East Auckland’s fair-dinkum community-powered public service radio station, on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
She’ll Be Right - it’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. And this Saturday, Johnny Andrews is taking us to the movies, musically. In fully Dolby-enhanced, hi-fi quadraphonic sound (probably). Cut! – PJ
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
