Episode 516 - Start of NZ Music Month
On this week’s Palmy Pride show, the team rounds up major LGBTQ+ news and community updates: Russia’s LGBT Network being labelled “extremist,” a Utah city ordered to pay damages after blocking an all-ages drag show, and an Oregon ruling supporting housing for transgender women prisoners based on gender identity. They also cover new research challenging claims about trans youth “growing out of it,” discuss NZ Blood Service updates to donor screening rules, and share a lighter moment with a sharply satirical “cocktail sav” story—plus plenty of gay anthems throughout.

Edition 7 2026 Series - Mum and Dad Investors
Cam and Daniel from Tenants Union discuss what it means for renters (and the wider market) as “mum and dad” property investors start selling up.
