This coming Sunday marks the 40th anniversary of a drunk Robert Muldoon calling a snap election.
His defeat in that election ushered in David Lane and the 4th Labour government.
With it that government brought a series of sweeping economic and social reforms - the consequences of which we're still living through today.
In Juggernaut - a brand new podcast from The Spinoff - Toby Manhire tells the story of that government.
Toby talks to Jesse about the series and those heady days of politics in Aotearoa.
