Polls Apart pairs Stuff columnists Verity Johnson and Damien Grant, two writers with sharply different political views, as they interview the same New Zealand political figures. Each long-form conversation explores policy and politics from opposing perspectives rather than reinforcing one viewpoint. The show aims to avoid an echo chamber by letting one politician face two very different lines of questioning. It is produced by Stuff Audio and focuses on New Zealand politics.
