This week the team at Iron Duke Studio’s take you through the pushbacks against the Government’s reversal of speed limit reductions, the US election debate and the ever demising poll results for Chris Hipkins. Henry also gives his take on the Government’s loose approach to regulating AI, Jesse is pleased that he will no longer waste those heartfelt expired gift cards, and Maddy gives us a run down on her infatuation of the Polkinghorne case. Enjoy.

Another week, another podcast in Iron Duke Studios. Our peaks this time round include the latest global developments in AI, capital gains tax being back on the table with the opposition as well as the latest riveting ANZ Business Confidence Survey. The pits this week include protests following France’s appointment of the new Prime Minister, our poor podcast timing with the US presidential debate and schools having to send kids home due to teacher shortages.

The Iron Duke Studio’s trio take you through some of their ups and downs in New Zealand and around the world from the past week. Our peaks include the new alcohol laws being implemented by Auckland Council, the approach to infrastructure that the country is looking to take and finally someone explains how the mighty Paralympics actually work! But we always have our pits… this week we discuss what is happening with the infamous Let’s Get Wellington Moving project and the Golden Mile, the Treasury’s boss leaving and her last hurrah as well as the 2024 Annual Grocery Report from the Commerce Commission.
