On the Sunday Session with Francesca Rudkin Full Show Podcast for Sunday 15 March, author Charlotte McConaghy is behind one of 2025s must read books 'Wild Dark Shores'. She joins Francesca to talk about the unexpected success of a book that was very hard to write and the insane research trip she undertook with a toddler in tow.

Holly Shervey has turned her story of drug addiction and psychiatric care into a new local TV show.  It's had rave reviews and Holly and her director husband Emmett Skilton talk about bringing her personal story to life.

Petrol has been the talk of the town this week but how much do we know about how supply chain issues will impact us in New Zealand? Consultant Nathan Surendran talks us through the supply chain and what plan we need in place.

Francesca celebrates the distraction of the upcoming Oscars and entertainment contributor Steve Newall has all the preview and some of his hot tips to take out the awards.
