Leighton Smith Podcast #341 - August 12th 2026 - 100 Years of ZB

With the celebration of 100 years of broadcasting from 1ZB, we have devoted Podcast 341 to three interviews with the station's past and present management: Bill Francis, Dallas Gurney & Jason Winstanley.

Over the years there have been many moments of drama, humour… and sometimes chaos.

Find out how a successful radio station ticks behind the scenes.

There’s input into today’s political drama from our once National Party MP.

As usual, we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.
