This episode is pretty special.
Jason Gunn is one of New Zealand's most loved entertainers - and is the best storyteller we've had on the podcast.
We talk about the incredible rise of the Son of a Gunn Show, what people get wrong about Thingee, life in the public eye, McDonalds Young entertainers, Dancing with the Stars, sideline Jase and the art of storytelling.
And in the second half we talk about his heart attack, thoughts on mortality, family and the recent loss of his mum - and there are some incredibly special, emotional moments of connection.
Jase is one of a kind. When he walks into a room - he makes it a better place. His energy is contagious.
For Seamus and I, we grew up watching him everyday after school - and so to share his life story with so much depth was a really cool experience for both of us.
You'll love this one.
