Dean Lonergan was a Kiwi rugby league player in the late 80s and early 90s. He is reluctantly most remembered for a sickening head clash where he was knocked out cold and convulsing on the field…before returning to play on only 6 minutes later. Since retiring from sport, he had a very successful career in breakfast radio before reinventing himself once again and becoming New Zealand’s most we...

Ryan Fox is one of the world’s greatest golfers. At the time of writing this, his world ranking was number 30. And he played so well in 2022 that he earned himself an invite to this year’s Masters tournament in Augusta (that posh one where the winner gets a green jacket and all the caddies wear white overalls which looks like they are about to go and paint a house). In this conversation, recorded...

Shane Cameron is one of New Zealands best known boxers. He is now a sucessful businessman. Shane and I sat down for this podcast way back in January. Long before the podcast “Runners Only!” even launched. Being on the cusp of being an actual boomer, I lost this entire audio file and some others…or so I thought. They turned up the other day on an SD card (long born story). Shane’s a...

As well as being a mum to three kids, Rachel is also one of the best lower limb amputee para-climber in the world. What makes this even more remarkable is the backstory. When she was 16, Rachel had a freak fall from a reasonably small height at an indoor climb...
