Robert Scott - Why I Got My Best Friend On The Podcast…
About this episode
Robert Scott is a New Zealand broadcasting legend with a 40-year career on New Zealand radio, best known for his recent 19-year stint on The Breeze.
He also happens to be one of my oldest friends. We first met and became mates in Palmerston North around 35 or 36 years ago.
This podcast is a celebration of my mate’s life and career. And it’s also a celebration of the best sorts of friendships- the very long-term ones.
In this conversation we talk about:
+ Robert’s recent prostate cancer diagnosis and the importance of early detection
+ The highs and lows of a 40-year radio career (and why he walked away)
+ Growing up in the UK and moving to New Zealand as a child
+ Bullying, resilience, and lessons that shaped him
+ Friendship, loyalty, and what really matters as you get older. And so much more.
