The Real Pod assembles to dissect the week in New Zealand pop culture and real life, with special thanks to Nando’s.

This week on the Real Pod, Duncan phones in on the way to the Mediaworks launch, and delivers breaking news updates that are now definitely old news. There's a lot of hard-hitting news about big cows, tradie woes and Jim Hickey's new gig, as well as exciting live reveal of a new Real Pod Museum artefact.

Beyond that, we assess the week on Project Runway NZ, House of Drag, The Great Kiwi Bake Off and MKRNZ, as well as shining a light on our favourite Lightbox shows of the month. It’s The Real Pod, and it’s extremely real.
