Tim Batt on ‘The Worst Idea of All Time’, Pioneering Podcasts in NZ, Guy Montgomery & More!

Tim Batt is a pioneer in the digital audio space and one of New Zealand's most impressive creative talents.

He's the producer and co-host of NZ's most popular podcast - with 20 million downloads, he's created his own podcast network, won multiple comedy awards, produced radio for Matt Heath, he's a standup comedian, was a co-chair of the NZ comedy guild, and a father of two kids under 3.

In this episode we talk about starting a podcast with Guy Montgomery where they watch the same movie every week for a year, what he learned from radio and why he left, working with Chloe Swarbrick, the best and worst of the NZ comedy scene and the future of NZ media.

Tim is hilarious and told us after we recorded that he'd contacted both of our partners to do his own research on us. He flips the interview on us about halfway through (well played Tim!).

This was a really fun chat, so many laughs in this one. Tim is super quick, thoughtful and just an all-round interesting guy.
