This is my top podcast. I listen to it each day, first priority, & it helps me feel more informed, connected to a great community, & less hopeless. more

Great left leaning local commentary on politics, haven’t come across anything like it. An Aotearoa New Zealand media company should definitely scoop it up & give Pat a lot of money to make & produce it under their banner. A real deal professional piece of news commentary. Can’t stay up for the live show, so I love that it’s broadcast as a podcast the next day. more
Apple Podcasts5GolzedNew Zealand5 months ago - Big Hairy News is Tops
I’ve first come across them through mutuals on TikTok. I’m not politically savvy per se, however watching and learning from these Chur guys have definitely encouraged me to do research and through the Monday - Thursdays livestreams via YouTube they have also created community engagement. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Apple Podcasts5Kiore1007New Zealand6 months ago - Balanced, entertaining and inclusive journalism
I discovered BHN during the New Zealand election and blown away at how high the quality of commentary was and the perspective that they bring to people interested in the exchange of ideas. They are light hearted, well-thought out with what they wish to talk about and always make you feel like you’ve walked away with a new idea to think about and share. In a time when most media is bought and paid for, I turn to BHN.
