Duncan Garner - Editor In Chief

Today on the podcast... A food supplier to the supermarkets tells me the shocking way they make money, it’s so, so ruthless. Little wonder we are being ripped off. Plus, if you’re a builder, having a home built, or even planning on doing some DIY - you can’t miss these guys. They will call out the scams, the over-charging, and stop you from being screwed over.

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. Can't we get money from elsewhere? What? Tonight we dive deep into what a change of government might look like. Also, we're one year on from when I went out to live in the bush on Celebrity Treasure Island!

Today on the show... I can’t believe I’m saying this, but Green MP Tamatha Paul actually thinks having more police on the beat makes people feel unsafe. You can’t make this stuff up. Are the Greens trying to appeal to absolutely no one? Let’s break down this nonsense. Nine years. That’s how long this family has fought to bring their son to New Zealand - only to be blocked by cold, bureaucratic nonsense. This is a brutal, heartbreaking story, and I need to know: why won’t the government just do the right thing? And, of course, some Letters to the Editor!

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? If you looked at their jerseys, you wouldn’t see 'New Zealand' anywhere - just 'Aotearoa.' Does this rebrand make sense on the world stage, or is it virtue signaling gone too far? Are we saving enough for retirement? The Retirement Commissioner, Jane Wrightson, says no - and she wants the government to step up. Should KiwiSaver be compulsory? Should we be putting in more? And why are we so far behind Australia? And some Letters to the Editor! Website: https://www.rova.nz/home/podcasts/duncan-garner---editor-in-chief.

Today on the show... Winston Peters just delivered a State of the Nation speech that had all the fire and fight of a Prime Minister - except he’s only the Deputy PM. With Luxon missing in action, Peters took center stage, defending the coalition, attacking Labour, and making it clear he’s not done yet. Is he the real leader of this government? And could he be eyeing something bigger? Let’s break it down. Plus, we were told vaping would help people quit smoking. Instead, we’ve got a generation of teenagers hooked on nicotine, and smoking rates are creeping back up. Where did it all go wrong? Letitia Harding from the Asthma and Respiratory Foundation joins me to discuss the shocking new research, the government's failure to act, and whether it's too late to fix the mess.

I dive into the ‘free lunch scandal’ that’s taken over headlines and, has the media staged this outrage? Plus, say the wrong thing, lose your job? Free Speech Union’s Jonathan Ayling joins us to discuss the fine line between personal opinions and professional consequences. Why do some protests cost people their jobs while others don’t? And is free speech only protected if you’re on the ‘right’ side?" I'm also joined by Tom O’Neill talks to Duncan about how employers monitor social media, what opinions can put your job at risk, and why a bad online take can haunt you forever.

Today on the show... The world is walking away from the Paris Climate Agreement - should we? With just 15 out of 194 nations meeting their emissions deadlines, is this deal dead in the water? Shane Jones and others think it’s time to rethink our commitment. Are we saving the planet, or just writing blank checks to the Congo? Let’s break it down. Shane Jones is fired up, and he’s not holding back. He says NZ’s climate policies are economic lunacy, coal is here to stay, and the Paris Agreement is more religion than reality. But what’s the alternative? Can we balance pragmatism and climate action? Plus, some Letters to the Editor!

Today on the show... New Zealand, we need to talk. Our retirement savings are a joke compared to Australia’s. While their teachers retire with millions, we’re left scrambling with scraps. 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 Vincent and his wife were just two Kiwi teachers—until they moved to Australia. Now, they’re on track to retire with $2.5 million. How did they do it? What does Australia’s system get right that New Zealand gets so wrong? And what can we learn before it’s too late? This is a conversation every Kiwi needs to hear. Plus Letters to the Editor!

Let’s get into it. And David Seymour joins me to discuss this - what does the acting PM think of this message? Plus some Letters to the Editor And we made it to 15,000 subscribers!

Today on the show... Should all first-year students at Auckland University be forced to study the Treaty of Waitangi? The university says it’s about understanding our country better, but critics - including Act Leader David Seymour - call it indoctrination. Is this academic progress, or just another politically-driven move? Let’s dive in. Can you buy a house without a massive deposit or a bank loan? Chris Smith thinks so. His company, Bloxx, is offering a new way to get on the property ladder - starting with just 1% down and payments similar to rent. But is the system ready for such a shake-up? We break it all down.

Today on the show... Governments waste money - we know that. But when taxpayers fork out $4 million for whale songs and karakia to ‘heal’ trees, you’ve got to ask: where does it end? The Taxpayers' Union called it out, and now they’re facing a major legal threat. Is this about defending science, or just shutting down criticism? You decide.

Today on the show... John Tamihere’s Waipareira Trust gets millions in taxpayer funding - yet its execs rake in over $500K each. That’s a 77% pay hike in a year. With little oversight and past financial controversies, shouldn’t the government step in? This isn’t about race - it’s about accountability. Time to open the books. I’ve interviewed a lot of people, but few have a story as insane as Shaun Winstanley’s. A cop, a survivor, and now an entrepreneur - Shaun took a bullet to the face in a live shooter situation and lived to tell the tale. But what happened in that moment? What was going through his head? And how did that near-death experience lead him to launching a protein coffee business? And some more Letters to the Editor!

In this BONUS EPISODE: Dr. James Lindsay is on a mission to expose the dangers of woke ideology, identity politics, and Marxist infiltration into Western society. In this unfiltered conversation, he breaks down how these radical ideas are shaping our institutions, controlling discourse, and even threatening democracy itself.

Today on the show... Christopher Luxon’s leadership is on life support - and National MPs know it. The whisper campaign has turned into full-blown planning. It’s no longer if he goes, but when - and who takes over. As someone who’s seen leadership spills up close, I can tell you: Luxon’s clock is ticking. And I sit down with Malcolm Mulholland to unpack the shocking state of our health system. Staff shortages, misdiagnoses, and rural neglect - it’s worse than we thought.

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. With National slipping and Labour floundering, he should be ahead - but indecision is dragging him down. Can he turn it around? And I spoke with Sam Stubbs of Simplicity KiwiSaver about keeping investment local. While most funds look offshore, he’s building homes for Kiwis. Can New Zealand fund its own future? Sam thinks so—and has the numbers to prove it.

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 say out loud. I sit down with parenting coach Justine Lamont to dive into the challenges of raising teens in today’s digital world. From managing screen time to tackling anxiety and online safety, we cover it all.
