Tensions are high after another week of high-profile police and crime incidents across Aotearoa. In the last two weeks 23 drive-by shootings took place in Auckland alone and in Wellington a man was shot and killed by police while he allegedly held a woman at knife point. This week on the In the Loop podcast hosts Cheree Kinnear and Katie Harris delve into the latest recent attacks and speak to former police negotiator Lance Burdett about what's behind the violence.  Also on the show, the journalists discuss the latest a housing developer that has gone into receivership, the latest court case between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and a McDonald's worker who was told to use less te reo Māori when talking to customers.
