Substantial Microplastic Sugar Mission

About this episode

The episode discusses changes in New Zealand legislation regarding alcohol on religious holidays, explores the health implications of microplastics and sugar, and examines the history of Youth With a Mission.

We start off this week’s episode of the Yeah… Nah! Podcast talking about a recent change in New Zealand legislation, removing the alcohol restrictions on religious holidays in bars and restaurants. As well as this small but meaningful change, Katrina looks into microplastics to see if they’re a ticking timebomb inside our bodies, Mark double checks whether sugar feeds cancer, and where this idea came from, and Bronwyn looks into the history of Youth With a Mission (YWAM), a Christian mission organisation, and uncovers some interesting connections to New Zealand.
