Clarke Gayford (Fish of The Day host and partner of NZ PM Jacinda Ardern) joins us to talk about the haunting sound of his morning alarm, being an Ambassador for NatGeo’s Planet or Plastic and his obsession with the ocean. Growing up in Gisborne and falling in love with fishing, Clarke has spent his professional life travelling the world and connecting locally with NZ’s fishing community for his TV show Fish of The Day. He discusses their connection with the environment and the dynamic moves they’re making to fish more sustainably in NZ.

We also talk about the power of writing letters to the Prime Minister’s office, an amazing surfer in Malaysia who’s turning beach rubbish into a material that’s saving depleted coral and a hero of his, Sir David Attenborough.
