Podcast

The popular Lore podcast delved into real-life horror tales of the unexplained. Now creator Aaron Mahnke has a fiction series called Bridgewater that'll send shivers down your spine. Starring Misha Collins and Nathan Fillion.

Music

In the absence of a lot of live gigs why not check out Fat Freddy's Drop's new album Wairunga. The band - always amazing in concert - recorded Wairunga outdoors without an audience, at the mercy of the elements. A concert film has also been released. Turn on, tune in, mellow out.

Don't forget to put the clocks forward one hour either tonight or tomorrow. Daylight savings starts at 2am, bringing longer evenings.
