This week US and Iranian delegations failed to make a breakthrough that could avert potential US strikes amid a massive military build-up. The threat of those strikes saw New Zealand's Foreign Minister Winston Peter's reiterate official advice for New Zealanders to leave Iran. Pressure is mounting on Iran externally and internally. This week anti-government protests spread to at least 13 universities. Susie speaks to Ross Harrison, Senior Fellow at the Middle East Institute in Washington DC and author of "Decoding Iran's Foreign Policy" on whether we are edging closer to a peaceful outcome through diplomacy or to a US attack on Iran.

Turning to health issues now, and some experts are calling for additional vaccine funding to protect older New Zealanders from shingles. Currently the shingles vaccine is funded for the 12 months after a person's 65th birthday, but many clinicians say that isn't long enough. University of Auckland Associate Professor and Vaccinologist Helen Petousis-Harris is with Jesse to discuss.

Is cash really still King? For years, more stores are no longer accepting cash as payment and it’s easy to see why, with 94% of transactions in 2024 being digital. They’re also not obligated to either. In 2023, the Reserve Bank of New Zealand found cash usage for everyday purchases had decreased from 95.8% in 2019 -- to 57.2% that year. Apparently just 8% of New Zealanders were regular or daily cash users. But today, the Reserve Bank’s opened public consultation on a proposal that would force banks to set up hundreds, if not thousands, of additional ATMs and branches to make sure people have access to cash. Today on The Front Page, NZ Herald Wellington business editor Jenée Tibshraeny joins us to discuss why cash might be here to stay.

A war of words between the banking sector and its regulator over how much New Zealanders want cash. The Reserve Bank's proposing opening more branches and hubs to provide cash services, costing the sector $104 million a year. It says cash continues to play an essential role for small businesses and communities. But Banking Association Chief Executive Roger Beaumont told Mike Hosking customers are moving towards digital payment methods. He says they're using apps or online banking, rather than going to punch in a pin at an ATM to buy an icecream from the dairy. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The cost of living is hitting Kiwis hard, with new data showing Aucklanders are more likely to be worse off. More than a third of New Zealanders have a savings balance of less than $500, according to new data from Westpac. Westpac's Financial Wellbeing programme manager, Warren Ngan Woo, says Auckland is a big city where things cost more, which eats into people's ability to save money. "This is just a snapshot in relation to savings, but it certainly doesn't take into account what other people have in options with their savings."

A New Zealander who has left for Australia says he's been hit hard by Inland Revenue "annualising" his income to claw back Working for Families credits. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds spoke to Corin Dann.

The Finance Minister says there's no mandate to reduce the state's shareholding in Genesis Energy. The Crown's directing $200 million towards new shares to retain a 51% shareholding in the company, following a $400 million capital raise. Nicola Willis told Mike Hosking if we don't take part in this raise, we'd be breaching the law requiring the state to maintain majority ownership – something the coalition's committed to. She says we don't want to be a barrier to these energy companies growing in the way New Zealanders need to secure electricity supply.

Listening to Chris Hipkins' State of the Nation speech today, I found it really hard to take him seriously. The speech was mostly just a list of things wrong with the country right now, most of which anyone who can remember back five, six, seven years, knows were caused by him, Grant, Jacinda and Adrian Orr. Take this line, for example: “I see young New Zealanders - smart, hardworking, full of potential - making calculations that no young person should have to. Do I stay in the country I love, or do I leave to build the life I've worked for? It breaks my heart.” Well, it shouldn't break his heart - because he was warned about this. When he, Jacinda and Grant were contemplating those long Auckland lockdowns at the tail end of the pandemic, Treasury explicitly warned that young people would suffer the most. I quote: “The negative consequences are that low employment and income rates are shown to persist for young people well after recessions have waned.” - Treasury advice, 13 May, 2021. Now, we've already spent more than enough time debating whether the lockdowns should have happened - we don't need to do that again. But the consequences of those lockdowns are there in black and white. Young people would bear the brunt. So he can hardly complain now that young people are leaving the country. It was predicted. He complains about affordability. Well, it was during his Government that inflation spiked to 7.3 percent. Yes, some of it was global. But a lot of it was Grant Robertson allowing Adrian Orr to print billions of dollars. Again - right or wrong - we can debate that. But it was the actions of his Government that created the affordability crisis he now laments. He complains about unemployment. Unemployment is up because of the recession Adrian Orr engineered to bring down the inflation that, as I've just said, was created by him and Grant. Now, I'm not defending the National-led Government - that's not my job. Frankly, I think they could have done a lot more to tidy up the Government's books, that part has been woeful. But they did not create the mess that Chippy is complaining about. And it is beyond ironic to have him standing there saying, “Oh, look what a mess this is,” and proposing to be the man to fix it - when he was part of the team, in fact right up there in the top three of the team, that created the mess in the first place.

The Conservation Minister says National wants more consistent policy for Auckland's Hauraki Gulf. National says it will ban commercial fishing in all 12 high protection areas and 5 sea floor protection areas. It will also review the rules which allow bottom trawling in some corridors. Conservation Minister Tama Potaka says some activities would still be allowed under these changes. "We've discussed this matter with a lot of Aucklanders, a lot of New Zealanders - they're not very happy with that situation, and we've decided it's important to revert to the original intent."

Was the 3% contribution rate always wrong? We sit down with Greg Smith from Generate KiwiSaver and Matt Macpherson from Sharesies to discuss the state of retirement. KiwiSaver membership is growing for both Generate and Sharesies, but Greg and Matt say that there’s a lot of work to do at the national level. So why did the latest budget halve government incentives, and what’s happening with the higher contribution rates? Why are so many of us opting out of KiwiSaver altogether, while Australia sits on a $4.5 trillion retirement pool? Hear how more New Zealanders are actively switching their providers, and whether it’s time to close the "total remuneration" loophole. Plus, hear why a weakening US dollar might be making your balance look red even when the market seems to be up.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show once again for another ground-breaking episode: Satanic and masonic ritual abuse and mind control survivor and whistleblower, YouTuber and content creator on her own YouTube channel and Substack, first generational New Zealander, credentialed counselor with a specialization in Narrative Therapy, communication skill small group training course facilitator, traditional herbal medicine advocate, retreat co-facilitator, and healing warrior, our beloved podcast regular, and my dear friend: sweetest Poppy JoyBorn as a first-generation New Zealander into a multi-generational lineage of incest, ritual abuse, Masonic depravity, and the insidious grip of MK ULTRA programming, Poppy's earliest existence was engineered for control. From infancy, she endured horrors designed not merely to harm the body, but to fracture the mind, fragment the soul, and harvest the pure essence of consciousness itself. Rituals timed to ancient astrological cycles, underground labs, interdimensional violations, and the cold machinery of mind control sought to reduce her to a programmable vessel. Yet, within the very core of that engineered despair, an unbreakable light refused to dim.Before the memories fully resurfaced, Poppy quietly built a life of profound service. She earned a degree in counseling, specializing in Narrative Therapy to help others rewrite their stories. She facilitated communication trainings, championed traditional herbal medicine - a knowledge she has applied to her own battles with cancer and Morgellons, and co-led retreats that sparked transformation in countless lives. But the body, a wise and loyal guardian of truth, could no longer contain the suppressed tidal wave of trauma. In a moment of divine rupture, the memories flooded back, demanding release. Poppy faced the ultimate choice: remain silenced or step boldly into the light.And in that choice, she chose liberation.On today's episode, Poppy will be sharing a continuation into the advanced and holistic research into her health issues and what this means for those with conditions like Morgellans as well as for victims and survivors who have been subjected to medical or human experimentation such as MK ULTRA, the needs of survivors to ensure they thrive and are supported as this old system dies, speaking out and speaking up publicly from a survivor's perspective, and so much more.

I am increasingly impressed by Iain Rennie, who is the Treasury boss. He seems to say a bunch of interesting and insightful stuff. Last year he warned about our growth rate, our debt and our inability to grow our way out of our troubles. He advocated for asset sales. This past week he was at the Waikato University Economic Forum where he talked about our problem of exporting our best and brightest. Ironically the latest migration stats came out at the same time. The worst might be behind us. Our net migration gain is still small, but the stampede out of the door by New Zealanders has petered out. At Waikato Rennie talked about how it is unique to this country that we export so many young people. His suggestion is the frontier companies aren't good enough and they don't adapt or adopt or invest fast enough compared to other countries. The gap between the frontier companies and lagging firms isn't as big as it should be. In other words the rock stars don't actually rock that much and if you are skilled and bright and determined, offshore seems the place to be. He also talked of confidence and that, to me, is what's missing in this country. Of our four kids who are actually working two are offshore. One other could be, but for now, isn't. We will never be a London or New York. But the fizz we had half a dozen years ago is gone. Immigrants have replaced our kids. We have been dumbed-down. Our brightest haven't been replaced with America's brightest or Europe's brightest, but from countries like India and the Phillippines. We are exporting scientists and doctors and bringing in nurses and baristas. Immigration is awesome. I love immigration. But not if it's not of our choosing. We are being forced into it. The good news is this happened comparatively fast. Not long ago our net gain was over 100,000 people a year. We brought them in and the good ones didn't leave. We can recapture all of that, but a mindset shift is needed. We need to want to be better. I'm not sure enough of us are of that mindset, hence Rennie's concern.
