Paddy Gower has never been afraid to stand up for what he believes in. Fromhis teenage and university years where he learnt to defend himself from cruelbullying about his looks, to the pressure-cooker years he spent in the PressGallery holding politicians to account, to advocating for the families of theChristchurch terrorist attacks and for sufferers of cystic fibrosis, he hasscrapped and fought for the truth and justice for others.

This unrelenting drive has come at a cost – culminating in a seriousalcohol addiction, anger issues at times, and bouts of anxiety and depression.Ironically, it was through his own work – a documentary about the outsizedrole that alcohol plays in many Kiwis' lives – that Paddy's wake-up momentcame. It led him to quit the booze for good, a decision he has never regretteddespite the knockbacks that kept coming, including the shock of the decision toclose down the entire Newshub news division.

Funny, brutally honest and packed with amazing yarns and incredible storiesfrom a huge and varied career, this is Paddy Gower, unleashed.
