The Mailbag programmes they have up at the moment are the 18 Aug and Sep
15 ones. I have just emailed them to ask that the Sep 1 edition be put
back up.
I have had a reply from Adrian Sainsbury apologising for the oversight.
The September 1 edition of Mailbag, part one of the 60th anniversary of
RNZI series, is now available for streaming or download.
