    Gary Stead: Former Black Caps coach on Kane Williamson's career, retirement

    Some closest to Kane Williamson's career are taking time to bask in the glory of one of New Zealand's greatest cricketers.  Williamson is immediately retiring from international cricket ahead of New Zealand's second test against England starting Wednesday.  He finishes with the most New Zealand test runs, most centuries and an astonishing average of 54.06.  Gary Stead coached the Black Caps between 2018 and 2025 and says two of Williamson's knocks with the bat stand out most.  He joined Lesley Murdoch to reflect on Williamson’s career.   LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Marty Fuller: Canterbury Publican on his career in the hospitality industry, community involvement

    After more than four decades in the hospitality industry, Canterbury publican Marty Fuller is firmly established as one of the region’s most recognisable and respected figures.  He’s spent over 40 years in the pub game alongside wife Naomi, building a reputation not just for longevity, but for his connection with the local community and his ability to evolve with a changing industry.  From the traditional local watering hole to the modern hospitality landscape, Fuller has seen it all — shifts in customer expectations, the rise of food-led venues, and the ongoing challenges facing the sector.  Throughout it all, he has remained a constant presence behind the bar, with a passion for people that has helped define his career.  We shine the spotlight firmly on Fuller as he reflects on his journey, the lessons learned along the way, and what continues to drive him after more than 40 years in the business.  It’s a story of resilience, adaptation, and a lifelong commitment to the hospitality trade in Canterbury.  LISTEN ABOVE  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
