Weekend Variety Wireless With Graeme Hill On Radiolive

First up, James Croot our resident movie reviewer takes a look at the latest in the New Zealand International Film Festival. Then, Max Cryer is a New Zealand living treasure in both entertainment and etymological spheres. He joins Graeme Hill to banter over the origin of words and their meaning. Why is sucking up called toadying? Where did the word 'nurse' come from? Max and Graeme take a look at the meaning and history of the phrase on the ran-tan. Then Max tells us about the origin of the termpork barrel politics. Weekend Variety Wireless with Graeme Hill, 8pm - midnight Saturdays and Sundays, on RadioLIVE and streaming live to the Rova app on Android and iPhone.
