1:15 Fonterra Payout - Professor Jacqueline Rowarth

This morning, Fonterra announced it has lowered the forecast payout to dairy farmers for the 2015/2016 season. The dairy company reduced the farmgate milk price to $4.15 per kilogram of milk solids, down from $4.60 per kilo. But just how much more pressure will this put on farmers and what's the outlook for the rest of the year? Jacqueline Rowarth is a Professor of Agri-Business from the University of Waikato.

1:25 #NoFilterFeb - Fritha Hookway

By now, many of us will have broken our new year vows. The resolutions we make about losing weight, exercising more, eating a more healthy diet or tackling various detox diets. But our guest is proposing another form of purging. Fritha Hookway is a New Zealander who has started a movement called 'digital detox'. It's called #NoFilterFeb. And it's about 'detoxing social media' for a bit.

The second annual symposium of popular culture is going to be held at Auckland University of Technology next week.
