01 In The Bonds of Love We Meet

Kia ora! In the first official episode of Jewels from NZ I’m going to talk NZ music... well, the New Zealand Anthem anyway. There's a little history of where it came from and how it came to be what it is and maybe there's a little singing for you as well. I also talk a little about the Levin escapees / Benny Hill situation and the weird time I had with parrots recently. Wanted to say a quick thank you to all the fathers out there, especially mine because it was Fathers Day here in NZ this weekend. Hit me up with any questions you have about NZ (or me) and I'll do my best to give it to you "raw and wriggling" as that's how we do it here in NZ. No edits and loose AF. I'm here for the good times so hopefully you find it's good too. Aroha nui. Ka kite anō. Xx Thanks to this weeks Jewels Gems for your call ins: Colin, Spencer, Jeff and of course, Joey - the whole reason I'm here and my constant support. Here's a link to that Spotify Playlist I was talking about! Find me on Instagram as well!  Credits to: The New Zealand Anthem and Wikipedia for filling some gaps in my knowledge and for freesound.org for my sweet new tunes.  Sparkles - https://freesound.org/s/399294/ Creaking Door - https://freesound.org/s/70101/ Melody Loop - https://freesound.org/s/415511/ News Report - https://freesound.org/s/376306/
