Addiction: From Peanuts to Pokies

Addiction: From Peanuts to Pokies

Just who and what runs our lives, our reason or our addictions?

What are we addicted to? Who or what encourages us? Does it matter? What can or should be done about it?

To explore this growing problem, the guest this week In Conversation with Noel Cheer on Triangle Television is the Director of the Gambling and Addictions Research Centre at the Auckland University of Technology, Professor Max Abbot.

Triangle Television, Wednesday 4th of July at 7:00pm and repeated Thursday 5th of July at 12:30pm.

Triangle Television, the home of original public broadcasting, can be received in the Auckland region on UHF Channels 41, 42 and 52.
Triangle Television is also transmitted live on streaming TV – an emerging technology – which can be received (as a live feed) on broadband-connected computers throughout New Zealand and on Internet-connected television sets.
