While The Front Page is taking its summer break, we are shining a spotlight on some of the biggest podcasts and news events from the NZ Herald network over the last year.

In the last year, Journalist and legal columnist Sasha Borissenko embarked on a mission to investigate the truth - and debunks the myths - about weight in Aotearoa.

She teamed up with the NZ Herald for Chewing the Facts, a podcast about how society has conditioned us to feel about our weight, looking at everything from the messages we receive around food and dieting, to the societal structures in place influencing our decisions.

Listen to the first episode of Chewing the Facts now, and find the full series on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
