Leighton Smith Podcast #340 - August 5th 2026 - Patrick Basham

Let’s be honest, there’s a lot going on in the world - so much so that it’s difficult to keep pace. Take America for example. A transformation is underway that has not yet been fully recognised for what it is or what it could become. The same may be said of Australia, England, much of Europe and beyond. If that sounds exaggerated, then this week's discussion with Patrick Basham will be of interest. The days of “that will never happen here”, wherever ‘here’ may be - are drawing to a close. As usual, we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer. File your comments and complaints at Leighton@newstalkzb.co.nz OR Carolyn@newstalkzb.co.nz Haven't listened to a podcast before?

Mick Herron: British spy author on writing, his success, and new novel 'Clown Town'

He’s been described as “the John le Carré of his generation” and a “megastar of the genre”. British spy writer Mick Herron has earned millions of fans around the world and delighted critics with his thrilling plots, rich characters, and dry humour. He’s won dozens of awards for both his Slough House series, his stand alone works, and his short story collections, and ‘Slow Horses’ and ‘Down Cemetery Road’ have both been adapted to the screen. Herron’s on our shores for the Auckland Writers Festival, in which he’ll introduce the latest addition to his iconic series, ‘Clown Town’, set during the height of the Troubles in Northern Ireland. ‘Slow Horses’ was originally released in 2010, and wasn’t particularly successful, especially when compared to the acclaim both the book, and Herron's work as a whole, now holds. Herron told Jack Tame things changed one day at a time, so it doesn’t feel like that big of a difference. “It was a low slow process, and it’s one in which, I mean, my part in it has been that every – well, most days, not every day, most days I just sit down and get on with the book that I happen to be writing.” “Everything else goes on around me really,” he told Tame. He attributes his success to his publishers, the people working in marketing, those who run festivals, and so on. “I just respond to invitations and very happily turn up.” Over four million copies of his books have sold around the world, but Herron isn’t quite sure what it is about his work that people connect with so much. “I don’t intend to investigate it too closely,” he said. “It’s a feeling that if I did, I might break something without meaning to.” “I just carry on doing what I’m doing and hope I’m doing it right ... I just do what I’ve always done, which is write the novel that’s inside me that I need to write.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jo Frost: Supernanny and parenting expert on her support for the UK's ban on social media for under-16s

Jo Frost —of Supernanny fame— is throwing herself behind a social media crack down in the UK. Their Government is looking to ban social media for under 16's. Our Government has made moves towards the same, although the legislation is on hold. Frost told Jack Tame governments need to do something, because children are dying. She says there are real families burying their kids because of big tech companies, who are profiting off of children. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bryan Adams: Canadian rock legend on making music, Roll with the Punches Tour

Bryan Adams is a rock music legend. With 16 albums under his belt, he’s estimated to have sold between 75 million and 100 million records and singles during his 45 year career. His most recent album, ‘Roll with the Punches’, harkens back to his earlier releases, with the rock sound that’s made him so popular over the years. And off the back of an extensive string of international dates, Adams is bringing his ‘Roll with the Punches Tour’ to New Zealand next March. Adams has seen major success, but his drive to create has never waned. “I’m not one of those people that sort of, rests on my laurels and is just sort of quite happy to go back and do the same thing over and over,” he told Jack Tame. “I enjoy the creativity and I really like, you know, putting songs together.” “I’ve still got the melodies in my head, so I gotta get them out.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joel Little: Kiwi award-winning musician and producer on his new project BIG FAN

Joel Little has worked with some of the biggest names in the music business. The Grammy Award-winning musician has written and produced tracks for the likes of Taylor Swift, Sam Smith, Ellie Goulding, Khalid, and of course, our very own Lorde – the place where it all began. But even amid all his fame and success, he’s remained humble and down to Earth – and his latest project only exemplifies that. ‘BIG FAN’ is a not-for-profit music space located in Morningside, offering recording studios and a live music venue with the aim of supporting the wealth of musical talent in New Zealand. Little told Jack Tame the whole idea was to build a place of a world-class standard, to give a little bit back to the music industry that’s been so good to him over the years. “If someone else was in my position and I was watching them, I would kind of hope that they would do something similar.” “I didn’t get where I am by just like... all on my own,” Little said. “I had people along the way kind of say the right things or give me opportunities ... and that’s kind of what we want BIG FAN to be for people.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Joe Thomas: English actor and comedian on being involved in New Zealand Spy

Joe Thomas was thrown into the spotlight in 2008 when British comedy ‘The Inbetweeners’ hit out TV screens. His character, Simon Cooper, suffered all manner of teenage humiliations at the hands of his friends, played by Simon Bird, Blake Harrison, and James Buckley. Now he’s on our side of the world, joining the line-up of Kiwi talent involved in TVNZ’s ‘NZ Spy’, starring alongside Rose Matafeo, Bret McKenzie, and Paul Williams. The show focuses on New Zealand’s three newest spies, and somewhat bumbling, spies, who have to track down the nation’s biggest enemy – the head of the Australian Secret Service. Thomas told Jack Tame this was one of those projects he knew would be good from the moment he read the script. “With comedy you can just tell like, immediately, if it’s gonna be good ... and within the first sort of page, I just thought, yeah this is great.” “Sometimes you just get jobs and you’re like, oh this is great, and you’re like, I was honestly like, what’s the catch?” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
