Leighton Smith Podcast #257 - September 25th 2024 - Dr Paul Marik

Wednesday, September 25, 2024 • Duration 01:25:53

Dr Paul Marik belongs to a group of physicians who have devoted their lives to their patients survival, and effectively been punished for it.

How can a man with a reputation as the “most published and influential clinician and researcher in critical care medicine in the United States" be forced from his career?

And we introduce a simple but useful addition to the podcast, after the Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

Leighton Smith Podcast #256 - September 18th 2024 - Michael Rectenwald

Wednesday, September 18, 2024 • Duration 01:30:33

Kamala Harris, the Democrat contender for the U.S. presidency was the most socialist member of the Senate.

Further left than Bernie Sanders, she has more recently been tagged a Marxist.

But is she? In fact, what is she? That is the most asked question amongst undecided voters.

For answers, who better to consult than a Professor of Marxism. Michael Rectenwald was a devout Marxist until he saw the light and recanted.

After guesting on podcasts in 2021 & 2022, Rectenwald returns to give us answers to the above, and what a Harris administration would be like.

And, of course, The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

Estonia is gifted with the world’s most efficient and balanced tax regime.

Tuesday, September 13, 2022 • Duration 01:29:26

Leighton Smith Podcast - Best Of - September 7th 2022

Wednesday, September 7, 2022 • Duration 01:07:56

Leighton is off this week with COVID.

This week's podcast is a "Best Of" edition featuring David Round from Podcast 149 on March 20th 2022.

Forty five years a law lecturer, David Round is renowned for his frankness. His unrestrained discussion covers many contentious matters confronting New Zealand today. From moral and political corruption to activist judges and the "meaningless piece of pious liberal posturing of the Bill of Rights”.

And as for co-governance...

We make comment on the P.M, and the authoritarian Auckland Transport.

Leighton will be back next week.

Leighton Smith Podcast Episode 171 - August 31st 2022

Tuesday, August 30, 2022 • Duration 57:57

In 2014 Australian entertainer Rolf Harris was found guilty, on all counts, of charges brought by four women. Harris was but one of a number of public figures to be charged with sexual charges.

But that is just the beginning.

After the convictions ex-Auckland policeman William Merritt, now a specialist investigator, spent two years doing what Scotland Yard failed to achieve. In 171 Merritt relates a story of incompetence, lies, and injustice.

It's a great study into human nature.

The interview was recorded just prior to the podcast team succumbing to covid, so this podcast is restricted to the interview.

And we will be taking a break next week so 172 will be on September 14.
