    Luxon's Oil & Gas Challenge to Hipkins

    On today's episode, we dive into the recent political drama as Christopher Luxon offers a surprising invitation to Labour's Chris Hipkins: support oil and gas exploration again to help tackle New Zealand's energy crisis. After Labour banned oil and gas under Jacinda Ardern's government, Luxon is pushing to lift the ban—but Hipkins has firmly rejected the idea.Is Luxon trying to bind Hipkins politically, or is this a serious attempt to find common ground on energy policy? I break down why Hipkins' outright refusal feels more like political theater than pragmatic leadership, and why Luxon's move, despite some clumsy timing, signals a shift towards addressing the real-world energy challenges we face.

    Today on the show…  - I'm joined tonight by Education Minister Erica Stanford for an exclusive one on one chat about the gutsy and overdue call to dump NCEA in our schools.  - Across 23 long, wasted years and NINE Ministers - we have sat by and watched thousands of kids go through the failed system. These kids have been able to game the system, get credits without doing much and pass before the end of year exams so they don't show or don't care.  - A hopeless qualification that is not recognised by anyone, and finally a Minister with a plan, some guts and a tone of ambition for our young teenagers has acted and decisively so.  - Plus some Letters to the Editor!

    Today on the show…  - The Greyhound racing industry says Winston Peters decision to wind it down and ban all races from July next year is the wrong one. It was rushed and done without proper consultation.  - Tonight we will speak to a supporter of the industry and the owner of rehomed greyhounds. He says the industry has been treated poorly, and crucial facts which show the industry has cleaned itself up have been ignored.  - And it's becoming clear the industry is also being blocked, muzzled and cancelled by the media. Tonight I will reveal that the Christchurch Press refused to run an open letter from Greyhound Racing NZ as part of an advertising feature they wanted to buy.  Website: https://www.rova.nz/home/podcasts/duncan-garner---editor-in-chief Instagram: @DuncanGarnerpodcast  TikTok: @DuncanGarnerpodcast 02:15 - Slam Dunc 07:04 - INTERVIEW: Tom Rickards Learn more about your ad choices.
