Hi everyone, PJ here. Being a community radio station, East FM is not political, but for two hours this Sunday morning we’ll be talking about the results of this Saturday’s New Zealand general election, being described as the most important in our nation’s history.

I’ll report the polling day results from across the country, talk live to candidates who stood in East Auckland electorate races, and provide analysis of what has been a very long and exhausting campaign – in these unsettling and challenging Covid-19 times.

Please join me, PJ Taylor, for the East FM Election Special, this Sunday, October 18, from 8am to 10am (NZ time).

Station manager Mike Rowse will produce the East FM Election Special, in the show slot that he usually DJ’s the Rockin’ Breakfast.

You have until 7pm on Saturday, October 17, to exercise your democratic right and vote in the general election and in the two referendums.

East FM, East Auckland's vibrant community-driven volunteer public service radio station, broadcasts on 88.1FM and 107.1FM on local frequencies, globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on NZ app Radio Schmadio.

Hi team! Thank you so much for your support of First Rung, our first podcast!
The launch last week went even better than we'd hoped. I'm over the moon.
I thought I'd drop by to let you know this week's episode, Location, Location, Location, is out now.
Just like the first one, it's packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home. It also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
In episode 2, we talk to a first time buyer who moved from one end of the country to the other for a chance to get on the ladder, hear about apartments as a viable first home option and an expert gives us some tips on how to choose the right lawyer.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
Give episode 2 a listen and let us know what you think - and I hope you're all in to win that crackin' prize pack!
