Context

Guyon Espiner & Corin Dann explore the backstory to today’s front page, diving into NZ’s political past and asking, "How did we get here?" But there's a twist: One knows the topic, the other doesn’t.

Hosted by Corin Dann and Guyon Espiner

On air:

Sundays at 5pm on RNZ National

Two men face the camera with serious but open expressions. Text reads "Context, Corin Dann and Guyon Espiner"
