Andrew Hoggard and Grant McCallum:

It’s the “Hoggy and McNational Farmer/Politician Panel”.

On today’s menu, we have Grant’s underpants, the Regulatory Standards Bill, and whether the government is doing enough to halt the relentless onslaught from carbon farming, blanket-planting some of our productive pastoral land.
