Blockbuster rolls at midday, Saturday... East FM

Phil from Farm Cove

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: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Someone knows these cats?

Penny Zhang from Half Moon Bay

Hi neighbors , we found two cats wandering around near Sunderlands Road. Does anyone know who they belong to? They look a bit dirty and hungry, so we’re a little concerned about them. Please let us know if they are yours or if you recognize them. Thank you!
