Mike Grimshaw / Has NZ Lost Its Way? Ep 472

Has New Zealand lost its way? If so, the only path forward is to honestly acknowledge what we once were, understand how and why we’ve changed, and then chart a course for the future we want. It’s a tough question, no doubt, but like any hard problem, there’s a reward waiting on the other side. I’m joined today by Mike Grimshaw, a self-confessed ‘intellectual mongrel’ and Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Canterbury, whose eclectic work spans radical theology, cultural theory, and New Zealand’s identity.
