Episodes
We connect changes to early childhood regulations and criminal laws. The school to prison pipeline is being strengthened, with tragic effects. Finally, we briefly debate the story of New Zealanders being referred to the ICC.
Political communication, media and the divide in reality between the left and right of politics. We discuss Mamdani’s NYC Dem primary win, David Seymour’s attacks on public figures, the horrific behaviour by RNZ in their reporting on the death of a young transman and the transformation of the western elite into weird slop.
We interview Kieran Kelly about his recent trip to Egypt for the Global March to Gaza. The story of thousands of activists descending on Egypt tells us something about Israel's need to keep the international community on side. Then we discuss Gaza, the American Empire and Iran. How is the Israel/ USA/ Iran dynamic playing out? Where to next?
Covering domestic and international politics this week, we look at the way in which existing power structures, and even accountability measures, predominantly protect the status quo and the accelerating radicalism of capital. NZ is chucking out the census, ACT is becoming more brazen in its attacks on public figures, and the West gets ever twitchier about encr...
We host Jeremy Moses to talk about the events following Israel’s unprovoked attack on Iran, the complicity of Western powers and the historical imperialism that led us here.

We discuss personality politics in NZ. Chris Bishop had an outburst at the AMAs. Our Deputy Prime Minister has passed the baton. Jacinda Ardern's book is out. Usually we try to avoid focusing on personalities in politics, but this week we ask... what if they matter? with Philip, Stephanie, Simone

We discuss Budget 2025 and how god awful it is alongside the media coverage and analysis.

We discuss the multitude of ways in which the establishment, both political and media, is aligning against opposition from progressive groups. From the suspension of Te Pāti Māori MPs to the full press against the Green’s alternative budget, it has never been clearer that these institutions are acting in class solidarity with the powerful.
We extensively discuss the newly announced changes to pay equity legislation and processes. Who is being affected? What does it mean for society, the Government, political parties and factions? What opportunities does this provide to fight back?
As the US hurtles into fascism under Trump we look at the mechanisms being used to accelerate this and the historical precedents that got us here, including the slower moves towards this scenario under successive Republican and Democratic presidents.

CW: Discussion of sexual violence from ~32:05
Fascism accelerates in the US with ICE running rampant, and NZ’s own rightwing parties are hellbent on introducing the same kind of political extremism here, aided and abetted by our media institutions.

1 /200 doesn't usually get former US State Department officers as guests, but Dr. Annelle Sheline is no ordinary former State Department officer. Having famously quit her job in protest at the Biden administration's unequivocal backing for Israel's war on Gaza, she recently sat down with Branko Marcetic to talk about how a US foreign policy that puts military ...
We discuss the failed Treaty Principles Bill and potential for a geopolitical restructuring in the political economy instigated by Trump's tariffs. Where to from here? How can we make the most of the moment?

We discuss the continuing atrocities in Gaza, the blackbagging of activists across the west and declining US hegemony accelerated by an absurd tariffs regime. Closer to home we touch on the Treaty Bill submissions and the horrific hit job on a Green MP by far right muckrakers and politicians.

We spoke with Kate from Justice for Palestine and Lulu from Stop Arming Israel about the ongoing genocide and apartheid in Palestine. They took us through the strategy and purpose of their current BDS Divestment campaign targeting ASB Bank for its investments in Motorola.

This episode was originally published on our old platform, and alongside many others didn’t survive the migration. But with RocketLab and US military concerns again on the agenda, we’ve decided to republish.

Waning trust in media alongside a failure to uphold standards and whitewashed investigations has NZ outlets in a bad spot. We discuss the examples of negative framing for Tamatha Paul’s comments about police, and the direct engagement between media leadership and far-right astro-turf groups. When will NZ political and media leadership pull in line with the ele...
