In episode 11 of The Good Oil Podcast, Cam sits down with no-nonsense campaigner and rising Māori political voice, Corina Shields.

Corina doesn’t just see politics as broken, she sees the whole system cracking. From the cycle of abuse that traps families, to the top-down agendas that ignore everyday Kiwis, she’s calling time on the nonsense.

With a backbone of steel, Corina opens up about walking away from an MP candidacy, the fading heat of the gender debate, and her strategy for shutting down online trolls without losing her soul.

It’s not about left or right, it’s about truth, dignity, and a system reset from the ground up. Raw and ready for a fight.

Raised in the Kingitanga movement and shaped by frontline service, Lee’s career has spanned armed security, law enforcement, and senior leadership roles in education, science, and economics.

One of the most qualified Maori voices in politics, he argues the need for a single constitution, lifting living standards, and why Unite NZ is pushing for a bold, values-driven reset of politics and culture.
