  • Excellent journalist

    Kathryn is a great Radio journalist. She is intelligent, knowledgeable and gets the best out of the people she interviews. Most of all, she is not one of those prima Donna “radio/TV” personalities who always put himself/herself above the interview. Too many of them in NZ’s media industry Kathryn, keep it up and thank you.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Around the motu: Tim Brown, RNZ's South Island correspondent
Q: What is the political landscape around unitary authorities for Christchurch and surrounding districts?
There is broad movement toward a unitary authority model, with debates over which districts join and where natural fit exists, particularly regarding northern and southern neighbours and the urban core.
Around the motu: Tim Brown, RNZ's South Island correspondent
Q: How would the upgrade be financed and what are the debt implications for Christchurch City Holdings and ratepayers?
The upgrade could be funded through debt carried by the port company, but that debt might reduce future dividends to the Christchurch City Council, influencing council finances and ratepayer returns.
Around the motu: Tim Brown, RNZ's South Island correspondent
Q: What is happening with this bid for Lyttleton Port operation, please?
Tim explains that DP World proposes an operations lease to manage day-to-day port activities while retaining ownership of assets, citing their global experience to reassure stakeholders.
Business commentator Thomas Manch
Q: Are these running clubs really a marketing opportunity for brands, or do they serve a genuine social function that drives engagement?
Thomas explains that clubs are indeed a marketing opportunity for brands, with partners providing equipment and discounts, while the social and community aspects drive participation and club growth, suggesting a blended value of benefits for both participants and sponsors.
Urban issues with Damian Madigan
Q: Tell us more about this concept of blue field housing.
Damian explains blue fields as a way to enable multiple dwellings on a single site by adapting existing homes and adding detached components, while preserving a shared garden and keeping the overall footprint similar to a single-family home. The goal is to create affordable, co-owned options in established suburbs without wholesale demolition or mass subdivision.
