On March 16, the New York Times published “We Were Badly Mislead About The Event That Changed Our Lives”. It reports that 77 Nobel Laureates and 31 scientific societies were involved in the cover up that included deliberately planning to mislead journalists. (Actually, the NYT can be accused of failing to do its job). Guy Hatchard analyses what really took place in New Zealand and elsewhere under the heading of "A strange mental illness is spreading via infected information networks". It’s a most revealing discussion. Also we comment on “The climate scam is over”; a ground breaking study using AI to debunk the man-made climate crisis narrative. Who would’ve thought. (Michael Mann is getting destroyed every which way)! And the Mailroom with Mrs Producer is excellent.

Dr Michael De Percy is a Senior Lecturer in Political Science at the University of Canberra. He graduated from both the Australian National University and the Royal Military College, Duntroon. He was also appointed to the Australian Research Council’s College of Experts in 2022. Sound interesting? I can only say that if he’d been my lecturer at ANU, I might well have chosen a different career path. We have an excellent Mailroom with Mrs Producer and finish with a critique of Prime Minister Christopher Luxon, courtesy of Amy Brooke.

Ex-politician Rodney Hide is fighting a battle. It began a couple of years ago, and it continues today. It involves the 'Relationship and Sexuality Education Curriculum' being taught in his daughter’s school. It’s actually taught in all schools. Rodney is not the only parent unhappy about what’s being taught, but he stands almost alone in trying to address it. To him it is a matter of principle. But we also discuss other matters- the RBNZ and Adrian Orr, Luxon and the National party, economic growth, and more. And we wind up in The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

James Roguski is a fighter for what he regards as the truth. He is a researcher, author, natural health proponent and activist. Three years ago, Roguski uncovered documents regarding proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations and contributed to them being rejected. But the battle goes on. The WHO, mRNA, and other controversial areas are his concern. Controversial, yes, but worth listening to. We contribute information you’re unlikely to hear elsewhere on Trump, Zelenskyy, and the Oval Office debacle. And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

The unforeseen arrangements between China and the Cook Islands have induced greater interest in South Pacific geopolitics than we can ever remember. How we deal with this surprise confrontation will be fascinating to observe. One thing is obvious; the Kiwi's “benign strategic environment” has had its feathers ruffled. In 2019 George Friedman published “The Storm Before The Calm”, which suggested the sort of events we are now experiencing. George Friedman guests on Podcast 273.

New Zealand and the Cook Islands agreements require regular consultation on defence and security issues. But the Cooks have just signed a secret partnership with China, catching the NZ government unawares. If that’s not bad enough, there is a second cause for major concern. It includes our Parliamentary Sovereignty, ownership of the entire NZ coastline and an activist Supreme Court indulging its collective ego. Muriel Newman, an ex MP (nine years) and the founder of the New Zealand Centre for Political Research ( NZCPR.com ), discusses the threats and dangers to the Parliament’s position as the country's ultimate lawmaker. And on the subject of courts, we catch up with Michael Connett, the lawyer who fought and won against the EPA (the Environment Protection Agency) over compulsory fluoridation. Whatever your thoughts on the subject, it’s a David and Goliath tale. And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

Peter Boghossian resigned from his position as Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Portland State University, where he had taught for ten years. He left under pressure. His letter of resignation is on his website, and is compulsory reading. It is entitled, “My University Sacrificed Ideas for Ideology”. We interviewed him first in 2015. He now travels a great deal, gives speeches frequently, and writes and is published on numerous outlets. Let us know what you think of the interview, in The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

It’s no secret that New Zealand is confronted with numerous and problematic issues. There is a common belief that leadership is a major cause of those problems. And not just political leadership; it is widespread. There is a weakness that can only be confronted by strength of character and a determination that is in short supply. Deputy Leader of NZ First, Shane Jones provides “character” that may not please some, but is worthy of consideration by those who come up short of requirements. And, after the Mailroom with Mrs Producer, we consider a couple of those matters. File your comments and complaints at Leighton@newstalkzb.co.nz Haven't listened to a podcast before?

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2024. He began his tertiary education at the University of Auckland, continued it at London School of Economics and Princeton University, He was Director of the PhD Program at Imperial College London. He has been awarded numerous prizes along the way, and returned to NZ twelve years ago. He is Professor of Macroeconomics at Auckland University and publishes widely, including his own site, Down To Earth Kiwi. And in spite of his career success he appears modest, but with the ability and intent to ruffle feathers. This was a wide ranging and very enjoyable discussion.

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2024. Ramesh Thakur is well known to this audience; he has appeared on the Leighton Smith Podcast more than once. There was much to catch up on. His views on the world and its various parts are substantiated by life experience. He taught at a number of universities including Otago and ANU Canberra and Rector at the U.N. University. He was also an assistant Sec-Gen of the U.N. As a result his commentary on world issues is superb. File your comments and complaints at Leighton@newstalkzb.co.nz Haven't listened to a podcast before? Check out our simple how-to guide.

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2024. The legal fraternity in this part of the world is delighted at the Supreme Court’s decision on Smith v Fonterra. But not everyone feels that way. In his inevitable style, Professor James Allan critiques the decision and the direction a collection of un-elected ex-lawyers are “usurping power to themselves at the expense of the elected branches of government”. As a specialist in constitutional law, Jim is in his element. We also spend words on SCOTUS and Trump. An important and essential commentary.

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2024. An insidious phenomenon has become widely evident around the western world, and it is alive and well in New Zealand. The attack has been against every institution that props up the pillars of our democratic freedom. Retired Judge Anthony Willy justifies his accusations (from his essay “Blowing In the Wind”, NZCPR.com). It’s an important document that should be studied in every school.

Leighton is on summer break, so we are highlighting some of his favourite guests from 2024. Since 2020, the W.H.O. has orchestrated and condoned one of the most devastating assaults on individual and societal health the world has seen. At the behest of highly conflicted sponsors, this international bureaucracy promoted policies that overwhelmingly harmed the world’s disadvantaged. Lacking any contrition, the W.H.O. is now seeking increased public funding through misrepresentation of risk and return on investment to entrench this response. The past, present and future of the World Health Organisation, addressed with David Bell, former medical officer and scientist at the W.H.O.
