Blues Brothers save the day on East FM, Saturday arvo

Phil from Farm Cove

We’re on a mission from God, and in troubled times such as these we need a hero or two such as Jake and Elwood Blues to sort out the mess, so it’s to the legendary Blues Brothers we turn to on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) on East FM.
To divert minds away from more serious issues for a few hours, it’s time we dug out the nugget that is the Original Soundtrack Recording for The Blues Brothers movie, which is a middle-aged 42 years old this year.
We’ll spin the vinyl gem in entirety at 5pm, and other records have been pulled as we’ll also take our usual tour of all the music neighbourhoods on The She’ll Be Right Show with PJ, booming out of East FM, East Auckland’s vibrant 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.
It’s all about the vibe; it’s all about the groove. – PJ… She caught the Katy and left me a mule to ride...

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?
