In this week's episode, Rosie and Katie dive into a heavy week of news, starting with the shocking events in Wellington on Wednesday as Police finally brought the anti-mandate protest to an end - though protesters refused to go quietly. Then, New Zealand has connections with a horrifying, global case of child abuse, and a new report from the IPCC has more dire warnings for the planet.

Then, for Looping You In, they explore what's happening in Ukraine as Russia continues with their invasion of the European country. Newshub correspondent Lisette Reymer details the refugee crisis she has witnessed in Poland, before one New Zealand-based Ukrainian pleads for our government to do more - Rosie and Katie explain why that's difficult.
