While we’re on our summer break, The Front Page is taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top-rated episodes from the podcast this year.  

Losing a loved one is one of the worst things a family can go through.  

But it can get a lot worse if people start fighting over the will before the body’s even cold.  

In June, we spoke to NZ Herald senior journalist Jane Phare about the dos and don'ts when it comes to inheritance – including how you should go about getting your fair share, and what you can do to make sure your final wishes are clear.  

New episodes return January 13th.

While The Front Page is on summer break, we’re taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top-rated episodes from the podcast in 2024.   

Travelling is often a stressful experience, particularly over the Christmas break and summer holidays when it seems we’re all rushing to get away.  

Those trips aren’t made easy when violent turbulence or technical errors have an impact. 

In 2024, stories of extreme turbulence popped up around the world, including one case in April when a man onboard an Air New Zealand flight from Bali broke his leg, while in May, a violent Singapore Airlines flight saw dozens hospitalised and one passenger die.   

That’s on top of multiple stories locally of domestic and international flights impacted by landing and technical issues.  

To get insight on this, in July, we spoke to the chief executive of Massey University’s School of Aviation, Ashok Podavul about whether we should be concerned – and stay tuned for advice on what you can do if things go wrong for you this summer from Consumer NZ’s Jessica Walker.  

New episodes return January 13th.

Extreme turbulence and technical issues: What to do when your flight takes a turn

The year in politics has been a bumpy road for many.

The coalition Government dived in quickly to reverse previous Labour policy, and pushed numerous bills through Parliament to reach quarterly deadlines and targets – with a mixed response from voters around some policies.

Labour meanwhile has spent much of the last year recovering from their election wipeout in 2023, leaving Te Pati Maori to lead the pushback against the Treaty Principles Bill.

At a local level, huge rates increases were a burden for many councils, while Wellington Council had the unfortunate honour of having a Crown Observer appointed.

Today on The Front Page, we’re revisiting some of our interviews with top politicians from central and local government as we look back on the year that was.

Policy priorities, a council in ‘shambles’, and a historic hīkoi: The year in NZ politics

It’s been a huge year for sport here in New Zealand.

In one weekend in October, Team New Zealand took to the water in Barcelona and took home the America’s Cup for the third time in a row, while the White Ferns won the ICC T20 Women’s World Cup final.

There were major wins across the board for the Black Caps, the Silver Ferns, and our latest football team, Auckland FC.

But in this major year, there was perhaps no bigger cause for celebration than the Paris Olympics, when Kiwi athletes bagged more gold medals at Paris 2024 than at any other Olympic Games in history.

On this special sports-themed compilation episode of The Front Page, we're looking back at some of the best conversations we've had around the year in sport.
