ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Five years ago Paddy Gower came on Between Two Beers over a lockdown video call, sitting between about seven craft beers.
He’s back on Hambassadors, and he’s now off the drink completely. We talk about what giving up drinking and the Newshub redundancy did to him, why election night is “the Everest” of live TV (this is his seventh), and what he’s hearing from Kiwis on the campaign trail.
He also gets the challenge of explaining the overhang like we’re ten years old. Plus a question from Jason Pine, and Paddy’s case for the Phoenix in Saturday’s Kiwi derby.
Before that: Kane Williamson spent a full day in the studio before his episode drops on Sunday night, then refused to leave the golf sim. Our flight to Christchurch circled for 40 minutes before getting diverted to Wellington. We emceed a golf day with a hole-in-one stunt that got the whole room checking under their seats, and hosted a live Q&A for Apollo Projects’ 25th birthday with the Reflections team. Rowan Simpson beat us at golf too.
Also: Between Two Bits (Auckland FC v Wellington Phoenix), a first wedding anniversary on What’s the Occasion, and a look back at our episode with Dame Catriona Williams.
