Special Howick homecoming for our NZ music great, Sat arvo, 3-4pm on East FM
New Zealand music legend John Hanlon is the in-studio guest on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) September 3 on East FM.
We’re excited to be talking with John between 3pm and 4pm, as we’ll further explore his most recent album, Naked Truths (Ode, 2021), that we featured a few months ago, with all its 23 songs.
It’s a remarkable body of work by such an accomplished composer and artist, superbly produced and arranged by Bruce Lynch and Russell Finch, who play throughout along with Rex Goh, and there are cameos by fellow musicians Dean Kerr and Lewis McCallum.
It’ll be great to have John Hanlon in the East FM studio, in Howick, where he grew up and it all started for him as a singer-songwriter and musician in the 1960s and 1970s, leading to the big-selling singles and Kiwi Music Gold Discs and career that has delivered 10 albums to date.

We’ll also take the usual tour of the musical neighbourhoods, on the She’ll Be Right Show with PJ that 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...
What word sums up 2024, neighbours?
If 2020 was the year of lockdowns, banana bread, and WFH (work from home)....
In one word, how would you define 2024?
We're excited to see what you come up with!

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
