NZ Sporting History: The one and only Barry McGee
It's time for NZ Sporting History, and today Jesse is joined by our oldest living Olympic medalist Barry McGee. Barry is best remembered for taking home Bronze in the 1960 Rome Olympic marathon. In 1961 he led the world 10,000m rankings and was part of New Zealand's world-record-breaking 4 × 1 mile relay team. After retiring from international running in 1965, Barry moved into coaching, where he became one of the country's most influential distance running coaches.

Find out why the GM debate isn't just about food or labels
Recently on the show we've been talking a bit about Genetic Modification, and the Gene Technology bill currently in front of Parliament. So far, we've mostly focused on food. The pros, cons and issues with labelling. You can listen to all of those via the afternoons page on the RNZ website. Today we're looking at another application of the technology - helping us meet our predator free 2050 goal. To that end, Professor Peter Dearden is leading a research project at the university of Otago to create genetically modified wasps. He talks to Jesse.
