off the wireless

A little nudge into the weekend with Sam Hunt, pacific island style.

Taking a break from dancing, Sam revisits an old favourite and recalls the time he went round and round a roundabout.

Sam Hunt delivers us once again into the waiting arms of a glorious weekend.

Sam’s just recovering from two weeks of swine flu but reports that it wasn’t all bad and also has some thoughts on the documentary about Sam called ‘Purple Balloon’.

Sam looks forward to another weekend and puts out the offer to budding poets that they can have their poems looked at by Sam. Listen to find out how.

Sam reads out some great poems from an anthology called ‘Good Business’ based around some of the more commercial aspects of Wellington City. Have a listen and perhaps a laugh!
