2:10 Film Review: Ali Ventura 

Ali reviews Marriage Story and Peanut Butter Falcon and discusses the Christmas rom-com offerings on Netflix. 

2:20 NZ Live Ha the Unclear

They've been one our favourite live acts on the show - with a high-energy mix of alt pop and rock weirdness - and now Ha the Unclear are spreading their infectious music across the world. 

Since we last talked to them, the band - originally from Dunedin and now based in Auckland - have performed in Paris and signed with a new label.

They're celebrating Christmas with a show in Auckland tonight and Dunedin next week but are in today for NZ Live.
