Are Our MPs Spending Our Money for Travel? 27.02.2025 29:22
Today on the show... Debbie Ngarewa-Packer spent $39,000 on flights in three months - more than any other MP. Now, questions arise over a Cook Islands trip with her husband during Parliament. Who paid? Where did she go? And why won’t she say? And Jordan Williams, executive director of the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union, is just as worried as I am - he joins us for a chat.

Can KiwiSaver Solve Our Housing Crisis? 26.02.2025 41:16
Today on the show... A Slam Dunc on how Christopher Luxon fumbled a simple question into a three-minute mess. His corporate jargon dodges accountability, making him look weak.

And I spoke with Sam Stubbs of Simplicity KiwiSaver about keeping investment local. While most f...
Are We Funding Fairness or Division? 25.02.2025 12:28
Today on the show... Are we building a better future or fueling a dangerous racial divide? The Māori Party’s rhetoric is more divisive than constructive, and New Zealanders have had enough. Billions have been paid in settlements - so why is there still so much anger? It’s time to ask the hard questions and draw a line in the sand.

Was This Firing Justified or Political Overreach? 24.02.2025 25:18
Today on the show... I couldn't help but feel uneasy about this case. A man attended a protest, and the next week, he lost his job.

Employment expert Max Whitehead weighs in on the legality, the inconsistencies in enforcement, and the broader implications for New Zealanders. And a Slam Dun...

Are We Failing Today’s Teenagers? 20.02.2025 34:26
Today on the show... A Slam Dunc - The media's trust is at an all-time low, and it’s not hard to see why. Too often, bias goes unchecked, narratives are protected, and certain politicians get a free ride while others are relentlessly hammered. I’ve been accused of leaning right, but the truth is, I call it as I see it - no favourites, no exceptions, just the hard facts that too many are afraid to...

NZ's Biggest Election Scandal is Uncovered! 19.02.2025 42:38
Today on the show... A Slam Dunc into what should be the biggest political scandal in the country - the allegations that Te Pāti Māori misused confidential census data to win a crucial seat. The media should be all over this, demanding answers, but instead, they’re giving them a free pass. If this were a right-wing party, there’d be wall-to-wall coverage - so where’s the accountability? And I sat...

With New Zealand’s population rapidly changing, Māori risk being outnumbered...
