Jarrod Lio has very kindly contributed to News From The Other Side in the form of "The Motorway" his new podcast and travelog. In this first episode, Jarod tell us what he's doing in Langkawi, Malaysia as a tropical thunderstorm rages outside. This is packed with interesting and useful information on traveling in Malaysia along with Jarrod's personal observations and opinions. This is a great travelog and welcome addition to News From The Other Side. I'm looking forward to hearing more. This is an enhanced podcast which means graphics are contained in the audio file which can be viewed in Quicktime, iTunes or your iPod. The visuals are photos taken by Jarrod.

It's game day today, All Blacks vs Poms, but first we must have a barbecue and drink some homebrew.

This morning, we went to the Britomart Farmers' Market for some veggies, but the camera battery was dead.  I'll have to take some video footage next time, although the Otara and Avondale Markets we went to before are much bigger and have more of an international feel to them.

Photo coming soon!

I'm a sucker for funky flyers, and though I don't know much about this event info (sent by Tokyo resident DH Rosen), I noticed Fumiya Tanaka's name and someone from the OVUM label on it, so it can't be that bad now, can it? -Rob

Hi everyone,

Many thanks to everyone who came out to the Rinpa Eshidan exhibition [en] at the Artcomplex Center Tokyo. For those of you who missed it, you can check out photos and reviews at the links below. Sorry, the reviews are in Japanese only, so I'll take the liberty of letting you know they couldn't say enough good stuff about us. ;-)

We've tended to stay away from politics in the past, but New Zealand politics, and the local government here, are far more interesting (to me at the moment) and far more focused on the issues than what's going on in politics "back home" right now. That includes Obama, Hillary, McCain and anything Sharon Stone might say about China or Tibet.

If you find Alex's and my usual banter tiresome, uninteresting, boring, offensive, not-offensive-enough, or whatever, stick around for Andrew at about 22:00 minutes into this enhanced podcast, where his arrival easily doubles the show's IQ.
