Podcasts from the NZ Herald and Newstalk ZB are an easy, free way to stay up to date when you're on the move. It's just like radio, but you're in the driver's seat, able to download the best of news, information and story-telling shows.

You can listen from your computer, tablet or smartphone. You do need to be connected to the internet, but once you've downloaded the show, you can listen offline as well.

Perfect for the commute, or when you're running errands.
