Episode description

NZIFF: James Croot lines up the amazing array of documentaries on offer at the New Zealand International Film Festival. Plus, 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 July, July? Plus, why do we (sometimes) say we dig something when we like it? Or as Graeme says I dig it, Daddio. Also, Mr Cryer and Graeme banter over a few metonyms broken down, why yak means chat, and why someone in disgrace is in the dog house. Weekend Variety Wireless with Graeme Hill, 8pm - midnight Saturdays and Sundays, on RadioLIVE and streaming live to the Rova app on Android and iPhone. RadioLIVE.
