One Year On: Celebrity Treasure Island 27.03.2025 38:20
Today on the show... How many strikes can the Greens notch up? Defund police, take officers off the beat and why do we need to focus on making profits in our economy.

Today on the show... They've done it - our All Whites are off to the World Cup! But hold on... where exactly are they from?

And could he be eyeing something bigger? Let’s break i...

Successive governments have meddled, stripped, and failed us. If we don’t demand change now, we’ll be working into our 70s while our Aussie mates are sipping cocktails on the beach. Wake up, New Zealand! Simon Vi...
