Jay and Dunc (The Rock Drive)

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

mardi 9 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:06:56

Launch episode!

Jay Reeve and Dunc Heyde - the voices behind The Rock Drive - kick off Episode 1 of In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy by taking Murph for a spin in Dunc’s 1997 V8 Chevy Suburban. It’s a classic bit of kit, “with eleven cup holders” and just the right vibe for a solid road trip yarn.

Dunc owns up to being a mellow, laid-back driver. Jay, meanwhile, describes his style as inquisitive — which might explain why this ride takes a few unexpected turns. With years spent on the road during his pro longboarding days, Jay’s relationship with driving is as layered as his playlist choices. The conversation covers everything from first cars and questionable decisions to parenting, personal growth and what’s changed for them as drivers over time.

This ten-part series invites high-profile New Zealanders to take Murph for a spin in their own cars while opening up about the lives they’ve lived — and the roads they’ve taken. Then it’s back to the studio for a more unfiltered chat about defining moments, driving habits, and the lessons that stuck.

In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy is about cars — sure — but more than that, it’s about people. Honest, funny, and surprisingly personal stories from familiar faces, told from behind the wheel.

New episodes drop every Wednesday until 12 November.

Matt Watson: No Script, No Limits

Saison 1 · Épisode 5

mardi 7 octobre 2025 • Durée 01:56:23

Kiwi Maverick: Fishing, Fame and Forging His Own Path

He’s “wrestled marlin from helicopters”, dodged danger in open seas, and somehow ended up on American late-night TV — all without a media plan or a roadmap.

Matt Watson’s story is one of relentless reinvention. When one door closes, he doesn’t wait for another to open — he builds his own and kicks it wide open. Whether it’s pioneering a new style of fishing show, walking away from the spotlight, or turning close calls into life lessons, Matt doesn’t just chase opportunity — he creates it.

And his next adventure? It won’t surprise you to hear it involves another world first: salt water in beer. Only Matt Watson could make that make sense.

In this episode of In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy, Murph dives into Matt’s off-the-grid mindset, the moments that nearly cost him everything, and how a backyard cricket match nearly derailed his career before it began. It’s raw, unfiltered, and classic Kiwi — with plenty of laughs along the way.

And, we hear what it’s like to be called the Tom Cruise of fishing.

Sir Peter Beck: DeLoreans, Dreams & Defying Gravity

Saison 1 · Épisode 4

mardi 30 septembre 2025 • Durée 57:34

Rocket Lab founder. Knight. Innovator. DeLorean owner.

Sir Peter Beck may be chasing the stars - but in this episode, he’s keeping it grounded with Murph, in a car that looks like it time-travelled straight out of the 80s!

Before stepping into the studio, Murph takes a spin with Sir Peter in his stainless-steel DeLorean - a car that, according to Peter, “only does one thing good: it looks good.” But what follows is far deeper than just car talk.

In this unmissable episode of In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy, Sir Peter Beck opens up about his journey from building rockets in Invercargill using SodaStream bottles, to launching one of the world’s most innovative aerospace companies. He shares the mindset behind Rocket Lab’s rise, how he deals with pressure, the moments that nearly derailed him, and the Kiwi grit that powered him through it all.

And yes, Murph asks the big one: did we really land on the moon?

From wild rides to near misses, from space dreams to steering the future, this is a wide-ranging, inspiring, and often hilarious conversation with one of New Zealand’s boldest thinkers.

Buckle up - this one’s going to orbit.

Jenny-May Clarkson: Lessons from the Backroads, the Beat, and the Game

Saison 1 · Épisode 3

mardi 23 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:20:45

In this episode of In the Driver’s Seat, Greg Murphy jumps into a well-travelled Toyota Corolla with Jenny-May Clarkson - TV presenter, former Silver Fern, ex-cop, and proud parent - for a ride that’s full of laughs, real talk, and life lessons.

The Corolla has 230,000km on the clock and was passed down from her late father - the same man who taught her to drive on the gravel backroads of Pio Pio when she was a young teen. Jenny-May shares wild tales of early crashes, close calls, and the teenage bravado that nearly got the better of her.

But everything changed when, as a 20-year-old police officer, she attended her first fatal crash. The victim was just 16. “That could have been me,” she says. It was a moment that shifted everything - and now, as a parent raising four kids - including teens learning to drive - she's on a mission to pass on the lessons she's learned.

Alongside stories from the road, Jenny-May opens up about resilience forged on the netball court, the discipline learned on the police beat, and the values she’s now instilling in the next generation.

It’s a raw, funny, and heartfelt conversation that reminds us: driving isn’t just about rules - it’s about choices, confidence, and knowing when to walk away.

Laura McGoldrick puts Murph in the passenger seat

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

mardi 16 septembre 2025 • Durée 01:19:28

From cricket fields to headlines, Laura McGoldrick has lived life in the spotlight. But not all of it’s been glamorous — including the time someone wished she’d die in a car crash.

In this week’s ride, Laura shares about building a career in sports media, a truly bizarre talent for remembering every licence plate she’s ever owned, and the tougher side of life in the spotlight.

And she gets Murph to open up about his own near-fatal crash at 18 — including the moment he thought he’d killed someone.

This one’s honest, unfiltered, and impossible to miss.

Paul Ego: Comedy, Crashes & Close Calls

Saison 1 · Épisode 10

mardi 11 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:27:56

Comedian. Stickman. Everyday Kiwi behind the wheel.

Featuring: Laughs, Lessons and a Burning Reminder

In this season finale, Murph jumps in with Paul Ego for a ride full of laughs, close calls, and a few surprises — including his early days fronting a rock band, long before comedy took over.

From an unforgettable crash in a borrowed work ute (while trying to impress a girl) to an ill-timed cigarette flick that ended with a literal burning lesson, Paul opens up about how those moments shaped his confidence, career, and caution behind the wheel.

It’s funny, honest, and a fitting way to wrap up the season — with plenty of stories you haven’t heard before (and probably couldn’t make up).

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

mardi 4 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:07:49

From Roses to Road Rules: Fatherhood, Fame & Finding Balance

He’s gone from handing out roses on national TV to changing nappies, running businesses, and chasing three young kids — all while staying true to what matters most.

Art Green might’ve risen to fame as New Zealand’s first Bachelor, but he’s long since swapped the spotlight for something far more real: family, health, and balance.

In this episode of In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy, Art opens up about the crash that flipped his world — literally — and the wake-up call that changed how he drives, lives, and leads. From fame to fatherhood and the hard lessons learned behind the wheel, this chat’s got gear changes you won’t see coming.

Honest, funny, and moving — it’s a reminder that slowing down sometimes takes real courage.

Sir Peter Leitch: Meat, Mindset & The Mad Butcher Way

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

mardi 28 octobre 2025 • Durée 41:08

From Mince to Mindset: The Mad Butcher’s Recipe for Success

He’s the man who turned sausages into a symbol of Kiwi spirit - and laughter into a legacy. But behind Sir Peter Leitch’s iconic laugh and larger-than-life personality lies a story of grit, generosity, and heart.

From humble beginnings to building one of New Zealand’s most recognisable brands, the Mad Butcher opens up to Murph about the hustle, the hardship, and the lessons that shaped his journey.

And when Murph asks if he’d ever go vegetarian if it guaranteed the Warriors a championship, Sir Peter’s response is unexpectedly heartfelt - a moment that says everything about his loyalty, his passion, and his love for the game.

He also reveals his unique take on what distracts him most behind the wheel - a reminder that everyone’s distractions are different, and staying alert matters.

It’s a conversation full of honesty, humour, and that unmistakable laugh that’s been part of Kiwi life for decades.

Nathan Wallis: Your Brain on Risk

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

mardi 14 octobre 2025 • Durée 01:02:59

Neuroscience, Teen Drivers & Why We Make Dumb Decisions

What if the biggest threat on our roads wasn’t the weather, the traffic, or the speed — but the brain behind the wheel?

In this episode of In the Driver’s Seat with Greg Murphy, leading neuroscience educator Nathan Wallis takes us on a deep dive into the teenage brain — and why it’s wired for risk, distraction, and sometimes even disaster.

Murph and Nathan hit the road to explore how understanding brain development could help keep our kids safer behind the wheel — and why teens aren’t choosing to take risks, their brains are just under construction.

Back in the studio, the conversation turns personal. Nathan opens up about fatherhood, grief, and the experiences that shaped his mission to make neuroscience accessible to every Kiwi. He explains why your brain might not see what’s right in front of you on the road, how stress affects your reactions, and what parents can do differently to support their young drivers.

This episode is packed with eye-opening science, life lessons, and real talk — and might just change the way you think about driving forever.
