Anika Moa Unleashed - Series One

Singer Anika Moa has gone from strength to strength as a television presenter — the first season of her interview series Anika Moa Unleashed won her Best Presenter at the 2018 New Zealand TV Awards. Across these 14 episodes, the guests range from actors (Sam Neill, Martin Henderson) to reality TV stars (The Bachelor's Art and Matilda Green), politicians (Paula Bennett) and everything in-between. Also included is a two-part Parliament visit, during Jacinda Ardern's first year as Prime Minister. In her typically cheeky style, Moa asks questions that most journalists couldn't get away with — occasionally rendering her guests speechless. Check out the episode guide here.

...I was awful at school. I was just an absolute rebel . . . and I organised marches against you know, establishment and what I believed in, and I was stroppy and I was considered a feminist . . .  [then] I saw the light!

– Politician Paula Bennett is asked about becoming a National Party politician, early in episode one
