I recently interviewed comedian Jimmy Carr for his upcoming New Zealand tour in January 2023. This point really has nothing to do with this issue as the interview will appear in the next issue.

One of the really cool things about writing for M2 and M2woman is that you get to cover a wide range of subject matters. This means that you tend to build up a library of esoteric knowledge useful probably only for pub quiz (although geography is still my foil). It also means that you get […]
It’s been a bit of a roller coaster for landlords over the last little while.

A very, very lazy review of the amazing Pinnacle Tower at Cordis Auckland. Yes, the world is opening up and the Tourism gods have opened the gates. I love travelling as much as the next Airpoints member, but I had begun to notice over the last few international jaunts just how tiring the concept of […]
Okay, so we all know that the Cordis Hotel Auckland is one of the premier places to stay if you are looking for somewhere to stay in Auckland. But this isn’t the only string to its bow. Not only is the new Pinnacle Tower and its art collection a destination in its own right, but […]

In this issue, we cover an interview that I did with Mark Rocket at the recent M2 Summit, alongside some other awesome Kiwi entrepreneurs and visionaries.

The other day, via the magic of that great culinary archive, YouTube, I was watching a Michelin star Italian chef put together pasta aglio e olio, which just has to be one of the simplest utilitarian Italian meals there is.

We share our office with a highly respected business consultant.

I have to confess that I haven’t yet seen Shadow in the Cloud, the 2020 World War II action horror film directed by New Zealander Roseanne Lian and starring Chloë Grace.

Not only does Parnell have its own epicentre […]

Magazines are by their nature slow content. They are slowly curated and slowly consumed.

Instant updates, instant opinions, instant opinions about other people’s instant opinions and so […]
Something profound happened to the history of New Zealand music when, through some divine planetary alignment and the drive, talent and vision of Tim Finn, we got Split Enz.

There is some very consistent and sage advice about when investing in property to focus on where you are investing. This is otherwise known as the good old cliché, location, location, location.
