The Good Oil Podcast – Episode 8 – Simon O’Connor

Over a decade in Parliament, Simon built a reputation for going against the grain – unapologetically pro-life, pro-free speech and sceptical of the creeping influence of identity politics.

In episode eight of The Good Oil Podcast, Cam sits down with ex-National MP Simon O’Connor.

Once a seminarian, Simon was one of the few politicians willing to say what many are thinking.

Over a decade in Parliament, Simon built a reputation for going against the grain – unapologetically pro-life, pro-free speech and sceptical of the creeping influence of identity politics.

In this episode, he talks candidly about modern politics, why he stood firm during Covid when others folded, the importance of Israel and what he sees as the moral crossroads facing New Zealand today.

It’s honest, raw and refreshingly unfiltered.
