Chris and Sam dive into the world of teat spraying technology with Matt and Trevor from Wetit at the Fieldays event.

We learn why teat hygiene is crucial for dairy cows, how automation is changing the cowshed, and what makes Wetit’s solutions unique after 30 years in the industry. There’s chat about field days antics, technician woes, and even a random fart song from Spotify.

Chris sits down with Maddie from Iona College to talk about The Shear Space – an acoustically insulated pod made from New Zealand wool and designed for quiet study, work, or podcasting.

We hear how the project started as a solution for a noisy school library and evolved into a potential business idea, plus the challenges of design, marketing, and learning on the fly at Fieldays.

Sam visits the Waikato Food Show and almost pays $210 for a food truck meal, while Chris recalls restaurant mishaps.

We hear about permanent jewelry, a suspiciously glaring "Angry Mexican," and a Swiss startup putting solar panels between train tracks. There’s also a right-angle bridge in India, chemtrail bans in the US, AI-generated bands fooling Spotify, and how penguin poo might just save the planet.
