Paul Kelly, Editor-at-Large of The Australian, investigates how the country went from the great reform age under Hawke, Keating and Howard, into the tumultuous Abbott-Turnbull-Morrison era of prime ministers, and arrived at the current existential crisis facing the Liberal Party.Paul started his career as a political journalist in the 1970s and was at old Parliament House when Gough Whitlam was dismissed.In his latest book, Paul examines how the Liberal Party lost its long-standing grip on the Australian psyche between 2013 and 2022, as it cycled through three temperamentally and ideologically divergent prime ministers. He says that despite its many achievements, the Coalition in office was marked by a period of under-performance and doubts over the political system's capacity to serve the national interest.Paul looks at the factors underpinning the current crisis besetting the Coalition and the reasons why Tony Abbott, Malcolm Turnbull and Scott Morrison all struggled to govern, in very different ways.Further informationThe Twilight of Exceptionalism: The Liberal and Conservative Era 2013 - 2022 is published by Melbourne University Press.This episode was produced by Alice Moldovan.

Hawke's Bay businesses are bracing for the fallout from what could be one of the country's biggest company collapses in recent years.

The latest from the Hawke's Bay, including more flooding in Wairoa, IKEA buying forestry land and becoming the largest forestry owner in the district, and a 60-year-old trawler has been sunk for a Napier diving site.

Swedish furniture company IKEA says it has 'nothing to hide' with its forestry operations and is proud of what it's doing in New Zealand. The company owns 500,000 hectares of forestry around the world, and 43,000 of it is here. Hawke's Bay Tairawhiti reporter Alexa Cook toured one of its plantations.

Let's not pretend that this roading announcement is not a massive letdown for anyone who voted for the National Party believing it would deliver the roads it promised. It is a huge letdown. Of the 15 Roads of National Significance promised following the last election, only six have construction dates: Takitimu North Link Stage 1 in Tauranga, Ōtaki to north of Levin, the Hawke's Bay Expressway, Warkworth to Te Hana, Cambridge to Piarere and the Ōmanawa Bridge. I don't even know where that is. The rest of them? Well, good luck to you. The second Mount Victoria Tunnel, which is one of my personal obsessions because of how badly Wellington needs it, has no construction date. In fact, the pre-construction work could take us all the way through to 2037. That is incredibly disappointing. I've heard rumours for months that this was the case. I've kept asking Chris Bishop about it on this show and he has assured me the project was all go. But it's not really, is it? And remember what National said at the last election: spades in the ground in the first term. That is now a broken promise. Now, I have to give credit where credit is due and that is to Chris Bishop because he fronted up and got honest with the public about this. That can't have been easy for him to do - for his own reputation and for the political fallout facing the National Party ahead of the next election. I know he's been anxious about this day coming and it has come. I think he's handled it as well as he could.But this is a mistake that Chris Bishop and the Nats cannot blame on anyone but themselves. They cannot blame Trump. They cannot blame tariffs. They cannot blame the conflict with Iran. They cannot blame inflation. They cannot blame the Labour Party. It was obvious in 2023 that they were being too ambitious in promising all these roads. They were warned they were being too ambitious and the warnings were correct. Now there will be significant numbers of disappointed voters who will have to wait so long for the roads they were promised that - given how changes of Government work - they may never actually get them.

Yesterday, I was talking about the amount of aid we're sending to places like Vietnam and Indonesia. Places I would venture to suggest that are showing more go ahead, more investment in infrastructure than we are. When you're looking at Vietnam, they're building one of the largest stadiums in the world, they've got fast rail underway, they're building a huge city to house much of its population – they're spending billions. It's also a place where New Zealanders travel to get first class healthcare that we can't access here. Now we've asked Winston Peters why we're sending money to Vietnam and Indonesia. He, or his people, referred us to MFAT. MFAT says they need time to tell us why Vietnam is in need of New Zealand money – we're waiting to hear back from them. They have been asked this before. Why are we sending money to places that don't really need it? It's the equivalent of donating to a Givealittle page for your neighbour to find out that they're building a swimming pool, but you can't afford to. I was asking this question yesterday, this morning there are two stories about the parlous state of two of New Zealand's hospitals. Could be any of the hospitals, but in this case it's Middlemore, the ageing maternity block, and Hutt Hospital. And staff are complaining about the multiple leaks and electrical faults and mould and water on the window as a result of the heavy rain – the buildings can't cope with it. And they accept that every now and then, at times of heavy rain, there will be the odd leak, but they say throughout winter this is what they and the patients have to put up with. Both of the hospital directors at Middlemore and Hutt Hospital say patient health was not compromised, services continued as usual, they're just leaks people, nothing to see here. But staff say they're fed up with working under sodden and collapsing roof panels, damp conditions and electrical issues. It might just be a leak on that one particular day and as a patient at the hospital you're only there for three days – the nurses, the doctors, the staff are working there all day every day and throughout winter they say it's miserable. There's a programme of works for our hospitals around the country, a 10 year plan, but the need is so great it's hard to know where to start. The average age of our public health estate —1,274 buildings across 86 campuses— is around 47 years. That's the average age, some will be much, much older, and the new ones, the brand new spanking new facilities, will drag that average up. The population is growing and ageing and demand for mental health services is growing. The pressure on government budgets and on the health staff trying to deliver services in decrepit infrastructure is immense. There is a 10 year programme of works, but Middlemore maternity hospital and Hutt Hospital don't feature as far as I can see on the plan. You've got Whangārei Hospital – and it's all built into stage one, two, three, and four. Waitākere, and God knows, despite the fact that wasn't in the news, according to locals, that needs a revamp. You've got Middlemore, but they're looking at targeted ED upgrades, and then stage two will be planning a new site. Stage three will be a new site or Middlemore expansion. Nothing about the maternities. Waikato, Tauranga, Gisborne, Hawke's Bay, God knows that needs a revamp. Palmerston North, Wellington and Nelson. So nothing there for Middlemore or Hutt Hospital, so I guess they'll have to keep going to the paper. And if the average age is around 47 years, the need will be great. I don't know how they prioritise which hospitals get it first. Then you look at the last financial year, 24/25 New Zealand spent $943.81 million in foreign aid across 624 activities. I get that we want to be good global citizens and I get that we are wealthy compared to other nations and I'm not saying stop all aid, but come on. When household budgets tighten, you have to give less. There isn't that much money to go around, otherwise you are depriving your own family. And this is the case here on a macro scale. How can we justify donations to Vietnam, which is just thriving, and Indonesia? How can $943.81 million in foreign aid be justified when we have leaky ageing hospitals, some schools need to be completely and utterly revamped, and some of the police stations are just appalling. A lot of the public buildings in which our public servants work are just not suitable and not fit for people to be there. How can we justify that level of aid when New Zealand citizens are travelling to the very country that we're giving aid to for their medical and dental care? Do foreign aid officials realise how weird that looks? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Infrastructure Minister says the 'one-stop shop' nature of the fast-track process is appealing to developers. Since the new law came into force in 2024, 24 projects have been approved with another 82 in the pipeline. The Government says the projects take 117 days on average to get approval, when it could've taken several years before. Minister Chris Bishop told Mike Hosking people are able to get all their consents in one go through the new process. He says archaeology, heritage, wildlife, and conservation consents can be done together – saving time. Bishop says the approved projects aren't just 'low-hanging fruit' – some, like a Hawke's Bay housing development, are quite simple but others are more complex. He says the Waihi North Mine and two quarries are examples of complicated projects which have been approved. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send Us A Message! Let us know what you think.Are New Zealand property buyers quietly proving the mainstream headlines wrong? In this catch-up episode of New Zealand Property Insights, Debbie Roberts explains why Kiwi buyer intent has jumped despite flat national asking prices, how Auckland's upcoming density rollback could slide home values by up to 8% over time, and the policy differences keeping New Zealand's rental market stable while Australia faces a severe crisis.Plus, we look at a classic house-sharing feud that ended up in the Disputes Tribunal, and ask whether KiwiSaver rules should be updated to support modern buying strategies. Episode Highlights & News Sources1. Quiet Buyer Intent Gains Ground: National asking prices are flat, but regional markets like Southland are surging (+10.2%). First-home buyers led the charge, capturing 27.5% of all Q1 purchases. 2. CoreLogic Suburb Breakdown: 56% of New Zealand suburbs recorded stable or rising values (led by Southland and West Coast), while Auckland's Wesley and Glen Innes saw sharp drops under heavy supply. 3. Trans-Tasman Rent Comparison: New Zealand rental affordability is improving (Hawke's Bay down $53/wk) while Australian metros face extreme rental stress. New Zealand's interest deductibility restoration is actively helping supply. 4. Auckland's July Zoning Decision: Council is debating two density rollbacks. Projections show Scenario B (denser zoning) could lower home prices by 5% to 8% over time while generating $3.9B in economic benefit. 5. Co-buying and Property Sharing Pitfalls: A recent Disputes Tribunal feud over cleaning products and utility bills serves as a sharp warning against buying property with friends without a formal agreement.Interactive Question of the WeekWe want to hear from you! Should the Government change the rules and allow Kiwis to use their KiwiSaver to buy a regional rental property under a rent-vesting strategy? Or should it remain strictly for a home that you intend to live in? Let us know your thoughts and your experiences in the comments or reply to our Spotify Q&A poll!Connect with Property Apprentice

It's been ten years since a campylobacter outbreak in Hawke's Bay killed four people, infected thousands of others, and led to major nationwide changes to how our drinking water is managed. The Havelock North Drinking Water Inquiry concluded that sheep faeces were the likely source of infection, causing what's believed to be the largest waterborne outbreak of its type.

Hey Talkhouse listeners, it's Josh Modell. Instead of a new episode this week, we're resurfacing a great one from a few years back between Blondshell and Maya Hawke. Blondshell, aka Sabrina Teitelbaum, released a new song recently and she's about to hit the road for a big tour. Maya Hawke is an actor who just signed on to star in the upcoming Netflix show The God of the Woods and she makes great records as well. Check it out! —Josh Modell, Host of the Talkhouse Podcast  On this week's Talkhouse Podcast we've got two performers who've got friends in common, and became fast friends themselves while recording this chat: Maya Hawke and Sabrina Teitelbaum. Maya Hawke is best known for her day job as an actor, most visibly in a little show called Stranger Things, and she was also in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and the new Wes Anderson movie, Asteroid City. But as you'll hear in this chat, she might be most excited by a side path as a singer and songwriter. Hawke has released two understated but fantastic albums so far, and she's basically finished another. The vibe is sort of indie-folk, sort of floating and ambient but lyrically really engaging. She's worked with some cool folks to realize her musical vision, including Christian Lee Hutson, who's the “Christian” referenced in this conversation, just so you know. ⁠Check out⁠ a “Sweet Tooth” from Hawke's 2022 album Moss right here. Sabrina Teitelbaum just released her debut album under the name Blondshell, and it's one of the best of 2023 so far. She describes it in this conversation as an emergency album—meaning a bunch of songs that she felt almost desperate to write, record, and unleash on the world. It's direct and angry in spots, but also darkly funny and completely unafraid. She's toured with the likes of Horsegirl and Porridge Radio, which might give some indication of what you're in for. Or I could just play you Blondshell's opus, “Salad,” right here. ⁠Check it out⁠. These two have a fantastic conversation, and just in case it's not clear from the context, they're both good friends with the singer Samia, and each has contributed to a Samia covers series called Honey Reimagained. Blondshell did a song called “Charm You,” which is available now. Elsewhere in this chat, they talk about Hawke's playing “body air guitar,” the weird emotional hit you get when a tour is finished, and the difficulties of stage banter. Enjoy. 0:00 Intro 3:20: Start of Conversation 3:21: On mutual friends and covering songs 4:58: On “perceived vulnerability” and perspectives in their songwriting 9:08: On sad songs, music you can play for friends, and “Olympus” 10:57: On the writing and jazz experiences that inspired Maya's music 12:48: On the physicality of performing, feeling the music, and performance art 14:41: On playing live, post-tour loneliness, and active vs. passive time 20:06: On maintaining friendships 21:17: On Maya's latest record 22:54: On onstage banter, scripting shows, and keeping shows fresh 25:53: On finishing a record and learning from the experience 27:43: On music serving as a snapshot of an artists' life 28:26: On promoting music creatively and authentically, and social media 33:19: On the songwriting process, and tv show narratives' influences on our experiences 38:40: On being inspired by friendships 42:13: On Maya titling her album “Moss” 43:40: On writing about past pain, and trying to balance it with joy Thanks for listening to the Talkhouse Podcast, and thanks to Sabrina Teiltelbaum and Maya Hawke for chatting.

Erik Huberman has acquired 23 agencies in 10 years — and he doesn't pay cash up front for any of them.Recorded live at Possible 2026 Ayelet sat down with Erik Huberman, founder of Hawke Media, for one of the most candid conversations about agency M&A we've ever had. No spin, no posturing — just the actual mechanics of how a bootstrapped agency built a 23-deal acquisition machine focused on the lower and middle market that everyone else ignores.Erik breaks down the deal structure that puts growth (not cash) at the center, why he intentionally did 10 deals in one year to "break the system" and learn integration the hard way, the advice from a roll-up veteran that made him simplify his contracts, and why a third of his deals don't go well — and how he absorbs that without PE backing.What we cover: Why Hawke Media stays focused on growth-stage and challenger brands instead of going enterprise, the deal structure where Hawke guarantees the founder's profitability and takes over HR, accounting, legal, and operations, why "no cash up front" filters out the wrong sellers (and the ego trap behind it), how Hawke gets to a term sheet in three days, why over-complicating contracts benefits the person being tricky, the "would you do all 10 deals again?" advice that changed everything, why Mountain Gate and most PE want him to go enterprise — and why he won't, and what it would actually take for Erik to bring on a venture-minded private equity partner.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS1:02 — The Hawke Media mission: be the best at the lower and middle market everyone else abandons2:04 — Three sides of the business: 23 acquisitions, a venture fund, and an AI tool2:23 — How HawkAI started as a predictive analytics tool and became an internal advantage3:23 — 10 years of M&A: from one deal a year to 10 in a single year4:00 — Why Erik did 10 deals at once to intentionally break and rebuild the system4:30 — The mistake of over-complicating contracts to protect the downside5:22 — Putting the risk back on the seller — and the advice that made him reverse course6:32 — The actual deal structure: guaranteed profitability, no cash up front7:03 — Why a 23-deal track record means he never has to speak hypothetically8:13 — Who this deal structure actually works for (and who it doesn't)9:23 — The "I'll be a billionaire next year" founder problem10:09 — Why founders get bogged down by the back-office work they hate10:29 — Where Hawke fits vs. Mountain Gate, Herringbone, and the scout fund operators11:21 — Why most PE wants Erik to go enterprise — and why he says no12:17 — The "wild wild west" of lower middle market deals12:29 — Three days to a term sheet: how the process actually moves13:49 — Why "no cash up front" is the first thing he says, and the ego piece behind it14:36 — Why simplicity wins: the rev-share story and avoiding the retrade game15:21 — Doing this at scale now vs. before the name — why you can't just copy the playbook15:45 — Why a third of deals don't go well, and why you have to be able to absorb it16:45 — Acquisition isn't for everyone: you have to build the infrastructure first17:23 — Why integrity and over-disclosure are baked into how the deal works18:11 — "Ask me what I had for breakfast" — radical transparency with sellers18:57 — What's next: dominating lower and middle market marketing, the reverse-franchise model19:18 — Would Erik ever sell?

Ooh, let today be a warning to public servants considering trying to get one over Erica Stanford: they may want to rethink that approach and play with a straight bat instead, because Erica Stanford is not one to be trifled with. Today, she has thrown her officials - her migration officials in particular - under the bus by revealing that they wasted more than $30 million on a biometrics data system that never actually materialised. What's worse than wasting taxpayer money, though, is the dark arts they practised in trying to hide what was going on. They withheld information from ministers. They deliberately fudged numbers to keep the project cost down and under the threshold that would have required Cabinet sign-off. They removed people from the project if those people raised concerns about it - and there was plenty to be concerned about. There were cost overruns, delays to the go-live date, and problems with what this tech upgrade could actually do. Now, we do have to acknowledge that these are Erica Stanford's allegations, as laid out in a report she has made public today. We haven't heard - and probably will never hear - an official response denying what she has said. But this is believable, isn't it? The idea that public servants might try to hide things from their ministers and frustrate what the elected Government wants to do. It's believable because we see it around the world It's a huge problem in the UK, in what they call “the blob” - their public service. And we've seen it here. We've seen it play out over the last two and a half years in particular, most notably when the Government made it clear that race-based or special treatment was to stop. But health officials in Hawke's Bay ignored that and made GP visits free for kids of only two ethnicities and no others, even though the Government had made its position clear. They decided they knew better. The problem with the public service, in general, is that too many think they run the place. They were there before these ministers were elected; they'll be there after these ministers are gone. They think they know what we need, they know how to work the system, and so they do. And Erica Stanford, on the available evidence, has just busted them doing it. She hasn't told us anything we didn't already suspect was happening - but it is refreshing to have it laid bare like this. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This episode looks at why career growth in technology rarely happens by accident, and what people working in tech can actually do to take control of their own progression. Ben sits down with Jeremy Burns, VP of Platform Engineering at Hawke and author of Earn More Move Up, to dig into the mechanics that decide who gets promoted, who gets paid more, and who quietly stalls. The conversation centres on a simple hierarchy that Jeremy uses for almost every career decision: customer, company, team, self. Reverse that order and your career suffers. Get it the right way round and the rewards follow naturally because you are creating real value for the business. They also unpack the unwritten contract every employment relationship lives inside, the difference between endorsing and adjusting feedback, and why pay rises and promotions are a lagging indicator of work you did six to nine months ago. Jeremy explains why walking into a performance review with a beautiful self-pitch document is almost always too late, and what to do instead. Ben adds the leadership view from his time managing budgets at Microsoft, including the moment a manager sits down with their final pot of cash and realises someone has been quietly invisible all year. The final section is about knowing when to leave. Jeremy uses the boat metaphor to talk about staying, accepting your boat, or moving on. Ben shares the eighteen months of planning that sat behind his decision to leave Microsoft and start Elevated You. The throughline is the same idea Jeremy returns to throughout: be first to your own rescue. About the guest: Jeremy Burns is VP of Platform Engineering at Hawke, host of the Build Your Edge podcast, and author of Earn More Move Up. He started in marketing, taught himself to code, and worked through development and management into senior technology leadership over a long career. His view sits at the rare intersection of having been on both sides of the performance review table.
