On this week's podcast:

Stephen Jennings is a Kiwi expat.

His first job after university was with Treasury in 1984, a noted time of economic and political change.

Jennings life has centred around change ever since. Working in Australia and NZ, followed by London and in 1992, Moscow until 2013.

Now he’s building cities in Africa.

His critique of New Zealand’s ongoing malaise needs to be heard before the election.

We make comment on Wokeinsm, and the meeting of the BRICS countries this week; could they play a role in NZ’s future?

And we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
