September 01, 2023 #BHN Party Pill King Matt Bowden on Labour's plan to reduce the number of vape shops by 90%
Former Party Pill King Matt Bowden has been at the center of government decisions to crack down on less harmful substances that people use instead of their harder equivalents so we thought he'd be really interesting to chat to about Labour's plan to eliminate 90% of vape shops in NZ and what that would do to the industry and if it would be a positive or negative for the health of NZers.

The hashtag #jewfish was blowing up on Twitter over the weekend as people were commenting on Bradley Cooper was being accused of cultural appropriation and antisemitism over a prosthetic nose, he chose to wear in the new movie Maestro, the biopic about Jewish composer Leonard Bernstein.

August 30, 2023 #BHN Martyn 'Bomber' Bradbury joins us on our 'National Party Tax Announcement' special
Bomber joins us tonight to look over the National Party tax announcement to see what we all think about it.
Two particular areas of interest are the foreign buyers fee and what'll do to the housing market and who is actually getting the best break with these proposed tax cuts. We're also interested in looking at the narrative that National has come up with, doubling everything to "fortnightly" and the main stream media just running with it, which in turn, just sells the National narrative and makes the cuts look more impressive.
We may also get Bombers take on the Ilam debate he hosted last night and see what his thoughts are around TOP's chances
Tonight promo code for free delivery on merch at www.BHNShop.nz is "$10AWEEK" and that will be active from 8.30pm until 10.30pm
