What the picker changes

Top topics digest — the cards score the selected period against the prior 4 weeks.
12-week heatmap & outlet matrix — show the 12 weeks ending at the selected week (they slide back with the picker, they aren’t a fixed snapshot).
Per-topic volume / alias drift — same 12-week trailing window, anchored on the selected period.
Coverage gap quadrant — scores the selected period against the 12 weeks before it (not including it).
Anomaly cards — only show alerts the detector fired during the selected period. Quiet weeks legitimately show none.

What stays as-is

Outlet orientation strip / lean colours — context-only, drawn from the last 12 weeks of activity regardless.
Co-occurrence graph — recent-activity anchored, not picker-driven.
Source & topic profiles — all-time data for the topic; the picker doesn’t affect them.

Rolling 7 days is a sliding live window for “current vibes”; switch to Weekly to compare specific weeks side-by-side.

Blair McLean the-country The Country 30/04/26: Blair McLean talks to Jamie Mackay 30 Apr · 49s

Yeah, it's going to be, like you say, a slow burn. Wine growers and Marlborough in New Zealand are cautiously excited. It takes a long time to set up a market, Jamie. It took a long time to set up the UK and the US market and, of course, China. Lots of education needed to get that market off drinking kingfishers and whiskey. Lots of education, but I know wine growers here. And Marlborough and probably New Zealand will be adding India to their travel list where they go around the world and meet their distributors and marketers and go into market. So it's probably like it's not a rescue boat for our current surplus. It's sort of like new fishing ground, which might pay off later, you know, so it's going to be a slow burn, but there's excitement for sure.
