RNZ turns 100... but already feels like a passing headline. Will there be anything else to mark this? A centennial history would be great. rnz.co.nz/news/on-the-inโ€ฆ

Apologies listeners Dave over on Channel Blue has reminded me that Aunt Daisy and Selwyn Toogood were on the commercial ZB network so weโ€™re left with Geoff Robinsonโ€™s โ€œHereโ€™s the Birdโ€ or else itโ€™s Jack Forsythโ€™s fruit & veg report!
