Today the New Zealand Prime Minister, John Key, announced he was resigning on Monday, December 12. It came as a total surprise—no one in the general public saw it coming. In this special episode, I talk about that, what happened, what will happen, and a little about what may happen. I’ll talk more about this topic next time, when we know a little more.
