In that time, he has covered 11 different prime ministers, from Robert Muldoon through to Chris Hipkins, and outlasted most of them in the hustle and bustle of the Beehive.And while he has left his role as political editor and moved to Auckland, the now-senior political correspondent and new dad has a lot to say about those he has covered during his time - including the most recent person to vacate the top job.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One thing she has learned is it’s never too late to learn something new. In Ask Me Anything, Paula will be talking to Kiwis from all walks of life, to learn how they got to where they are, and to share stories, advice and guidance the rest of us can learn from.  New episodes out every Sunday.
