My guest today is Winston Peters.

And in almost 400 episodes I don’t think I’ve ever had my research corrected quite so many times. This is most definitely the most combative guest I’ve had on the podcast!

Whatever your opinion of Winston as a political figure, I was keen to get to know the person behind the suit and the 50-year public career that has seen him work alongside a total of 12 different Prime Ministers.

We talk about growing up as one of 11 kids, the lessons from his mum and dad, ageing, faith, regrets, what keeps him going and how he’d like to be remembered.

There’s plenty of banter, a few prickly moments, and a lot of questions Winston would have preferred I didn’t ask.
