Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Where is NZ’s Count Binface, with Ben Uffindell
Q: First question, why would an intergalactic space warrior want to stand to be the MP for Clackton?
It's framed as a provocative, entertaining way to highlight the absurdity and performative aspects of political campaigns, while also drawing attention to real electoral dynamics and the role satire plays in shaking up the political conversation.
Is the Reserve Bank’s blunt tool just too blunt? With Bernard Hickey
Q: What was the idea behind a dual mandate, and why was it controversial?
The dual mandate proposed considering employment alongside inflation, but it was vague and debated, leading to distrust about whether it would meaningfully change policy or simply provide plausible deniability for policymakers.
Is the Reserve Bank’s blunt tool just too blunt? With Bernard Hickey
Q: What is the basic mechanism the Reserve Bank uses to control inflation?
The central mechanism is raising or lowering the official cash rate to influence spending, investment, and employment, thereby cooling or stimulating the economy to impact inflation over time.
Beijing’s ballistic message in the Pacific, and its meaning for NZ
Q: What is the message China is sending with the missile test, and who is it meant for?
The test is framed as a strategic signal to the United States, illustrating Beijing's willingness to extend its reach and demonstrate capability in the Pacific, while regional actors observe and reassess how to respond through alliances and hedging.
El Niño is coming: what does it mean for NZ weather?
Q: Tell us about the big headlines from this report.
Jon explains that El Niño is already here and likely to strengthen, with a strong forecast for the next few months and potential impacts that vary regionally, including drier eastern areas and notable rain events in the short term.
