Kim Dotcom reveals that he has written his most important ever twitter thread, we take a look at that.and we venture into The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

  • Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 157 - May 25th 2022
    On this week's podcast:
    The Australian Election; the rich voted left and caused political chaos. Is it as bad as some suggest or is there an upside? We analyse the result with Nick Cater, who has advice for those seeking to escape.
    We ask whether there is a lesson for the NZ National Party.
    And we take note on corporate groupthink and the absurd influence of wokeism.
    And, of course, The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

  • Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 156 - May 18th 2022
    On this week's podcast:
    We discuss the government’s Climate Change Plan with ACT Leader David Seymour. Spoiler alert — he is not impressed. We also garner his thoughts on the increasingly serious matter of defence, education, democracy, and the state of the country. Bryan Leyland, a power supply engineer, offers little hope for success of the “great plan”. We comment on the Ministry of Women’s Affairs and why it should be gone. And we peruse the mail with Mrs Producer.

  • Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 155 - May 11th 2022
    On this week's podcast:
    “Evil doesn’t really exist at all, it’s just something man imagines because of his limited view of the world.” Is this the reality?
    An illustrative discussion with retired American lawyer Mark Pulliam convinces us otherwise. It’s an eye-opening journey of how one man discovered evil is real.
    We comment on the inadequacy of the Ardern administration and a Covid report from Dr Martin Kulldorff on natural immunity.
    And, of course, The Mailroom.

  • Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 154 - May 4th 2022
    On this week's podcast:
    We contend that the Australian election is as important to us as our own. If you question that, talk to the 500,000 Kiwis in Australia, and those threatening to make the move.Nick Cater, Executive Director of the Menzies Research Centre, and columnist for The Australian, discusses how vicious, vacuous and scary this election is.We comment on the U.S. Supreme Court leak, the “War against the West” and the complacency of the NZ electorate.And, as always, The Mailroom.

  • Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 153 - April 26th 2022
    On this week's podcast:
    NET ZERO 2050.
    Any idea what it involves? A supposed thirty year project, we take a look at its goal, its cost, and its dramatic affect on your life.
    Professor Emeritus Michael Kelly, from Cambridge University and a NZ citizen, has produced a discussion paper; the first of its kind.
    It will assist in understanding what has been foisted upon us, and possibly scare the heck out of you.
    We also have comment on extradition to China by the NZ government… and a tribute to EarthDay (spoiler alert - not really a tribute!).
    And, as always, The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

    On this week's podcast:
    “Welcome to the new Dark Ages” was the title to a column that caught our eye. Written by independent journalist Christopher Akehurst, it is a timely summary of where we’re at.

We reckon it was gold!
