1980s music era in spotlight on East FM, this Saturday arvo

Phil from Farm Cove

We’re in a 1980s music frame of mind as Vince Collins returns as guest DJ on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) August 6 on East FM.
We’ve got a lot of ground to cover in four hours, with Vince giving the show its theme – From Romantics to Rap (and everything in between).
The She’ll Be Right Show with PJ beams out of East FM, East Auckland’s community-powered public service radio station, on local frequencies 88.1FM and 107.1FM, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
East FM is proudly the official broadcaster for www.howick175.co.nz...

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
