Think local politics is boring? Think again. Taryn chats with the mayors and council chairs shaping Taranaki and asks them the stuff you actually want to know.
If you think you know Phil Nixon, wait till you hear him talk lollies, playlists, and grandparent life! This week Taryn chats with the newly re-elected Mayor of South Taranaki, who somehow juggles council mahi, farm life, community projects, and a bunch of adorable grandkids. They cover his bucket-list band, the summer spot where he actually relaxes, life before politics, and of course, his star sign. Phil also breaks down what’s coming for South Taranaki: rates caps, town revitalisations, the stationery drive, and why Arts In The Park is such a vibe. This is the kind of kōrero that proves local leadership can have humour, heart, and personality to burn.
