In this episode, we delve into the quirky world of competitive bird calls, spotlighting nine-year-old Cooper Wallace from Chesterfield, UK, who clinched the top prize at the European Gull Screeching Championship in De Panne, Belgium. Dressed in full seagull regalia, Cooper's performance scored an impressive 92 out of 100, making him the highest-scoring participant across all categories. Cooper's journey began with a seaside encounter where a seagull nipped his finger while he was enjoying a tuna sandwich. Inspired by the idea of becoming "Seagull Boy," much like Spider-Man, he honed his seagull impressions, eventually earning the admiration of judges and audiences alike. Whether you're a bird enthusiast or just in need of a good laugh, this episode offers a heartwarming tale of creativity, family support, and the unexpected joys of mimicking nature's calls.

In this episode, we delve into New Zealand's landmark decision to grant legal personhood to Taranaki Maunga (Mount Taranaki), recognizing its profound cultural and ancestral significance to the Māori people. This move not only addresses historical grievances, including land confiscation, but also establishes a governance framework comprising Māori iwi members and government representatives to oversee the mountain's well-being. We explore the implications of this decision, its alignment with New Zealand's broader efforts to honor indigenous perspectives, and its potential to influence global conversations on environmental stewardship and indigenous rights.
