“Little note only leave full show so can turn on automatic downloads so don’t get spammed with all the 2-5 minutes segments. Thanks”

“At last the media team have got their act together, and produced the full show as a podcast! I have been waiting for this to arrive for years, it was just such an obvious thing to do and should have been done right from the start. Now they just need to separate the full show from the snippets, so...”Read full review »

“I would give The Mike Hosking Breakfast show five stars if it wasn’t for the amount of advertising. I’m guessing that, outside of the news and weather slots, there is possibly 20 minutes of actual content per hour. That said, Mike’s interviews and personal commentary are usually incisive,...”Read full review »

“Like the live broadcast, it’s little tiny bits of Mike slotted into a constant stream of ad spots. Really appreciate the content and Mike’s ability to use facts to expose what’s going on. I simply pop over to RNZ for 3 or 4 minutes whenever the ad segments start.”

“Just returned from a long overseas stint. I find the MSM in NZ totally bought and paid for by a corrupt government. I stumbled on this podcast while searching for ‘The Platform’ (NZ’s only unbiased and untainted news outlet) Mr Hosking holds the feet to the fire! Never before have I heard so many...”Read full review »

“Was good until they added all the ads.
Short interviews that have an ad at the beginning and end -overall equal time on ads that is on content which is sad.
It is the same ad that plays all week as well which will drive you bonkers.
Top tip: look out for the weekly 10min episode. It is just...”Read full review »

“I like the directness of the podcast. It covers a multitude of topics but remains current and relevant. Mikes style is similar. Without this show politicians would get away with murder. I love being informed. Sadly the show has now opened my eyes to the mess this county is now in. Keep going...”Read full review »

“Mike always research’s the subject matter in detail and asks questions that matter. They may appear harsh because no other journalists have ability or nerve to ask what a large portion of the nation want to know. Well done. FYI I’m a new listener in my 30’s so not the traditional audience and I’m...”Read full review »

“I don’t care for this podcast, Hosking is not a particularly dynamic interviewer and he rarely gains a rapport with his subjects. He often contradicts himself, frequently expresses racist and misogynist views. He also just seems really tired and not enthused about his work. I’m bored by him. Time...”Read full review »

It astounds me that his awful radio show receives tax payer funding and it’s sad that some people approve of his attitude and behaviour. His undermining of the government’s covid response was...”Read full review »

Pretty sure you are safe in that studio room!

“Thank you Mike Hosking! Don't ever stop asking your questions; clear, critiquing, revealing of the BS, and non- sensical behaviour questioning. Please, don't ever loose your tenacious need for answers either. Your voice is one of the few doing this critical work on behalf of all NZ”Read full review »
