Where to begin with 2023?  

The year started in a big way, with the resignation of Jacinda Ardern and two once-in-a-century weather events in a row. And it didn’t slow down from there. 

Ministerial car crashes.  An exploding submarine. World Cup highs and lows. The threat of AI. An active shooter at rush hour. A radio station that got effed live on air. Crime, the economy, trans rights, global conflict. And the coronation of both a new King, as well as the swearing in of a new government.  

There’s so much to digest, but how do we learn from this year’s crises, and what do we need to prepare ourselves for the year ahead? 

For our final episode of The Front Page for the year, we’re joined by NZ Herald editors at large, Shayne Currie and Liam Dann, and political editor Claire Trevett, for a look back and a glimpse into the future.  

Tune in next week for highlights from the year. New episodes return January 15th.
