Show Notes
Yep, better to make that clear. Use this version: Our first episode after radio and the start of Shubz Says So as a fully independent podcast. We found out through Facebook that our time on radio was over, so instead of stopping we just kept going. Hannah Tamaki joins us to talk about her life growing up, Brian Tamaki, her journey into politics and why she is running for Vision New Zealand in Papakura at the 2026 General Election. David Seymour is running late for his weekly segment, so Jimothy jumps in, then Tama Singh joins us and the three of us get into a wide ranging conversation before David finally arrives. Then for the final hour we switch gears into Fight Cap Sports Episode 13, with Tanera and I breaking down the latest in combat sports and rugby. Politics, personalities, sport and plenty of unexpected conversations. This was day one of the next chapter for Shubz Says So.
