The final episode of The Nutters Club, on NewstalkZB, aired amidst the unfolding tragedy of a shooting at Bondi Beach, Sydney, Australia. Host Hamish Williams opened the show by addressing the devastating incident, which occurred just hours before the broadcast.

As details of the tragedy continued to emerge, Williams and producer Boris Sokratov shifted the focus of the show to highlight the importance of kindness and positivity in the face of adversity. ​They encouraged listeners to call in and share stories of people who had made a positive impact in their lives, emphasising the belief that the vast majority of people in the world are inherently good. ​

Throughout the two-hour program, callers shared heartfelt stories of gratitude and resilience. One listener, Neil, expressed his appreciation for his wife, Annabelle, who transformed his life despite his challenging upbringing and current health struggles with dementia and bowel cancer. Another caller, Kahu, shared how a natural remedy, Tulsi tea, had helped him manage his ADHD and sleep issues, offering hope to others facing similar challenges.

The show also featured stories of gratitude for family members, friends, and even strangers who had shown kindness and support during difficult times. One caller, Matthew, highlighted the importance of independence for the disabled community, thanking New Zealand’s Kāinga Ora for providing housing and support that allowed him to live independently.

Listeners also expressed their condolences to those affected by the Bondi Beach tragedy, with one caller, David, sharing information about how New Zealanders concerned for loved ones in the area could contact the New Zealand Police for assistance with welfare checks through Interpol.

As the show concluded, Williams and Sokratov reflected on the importance of community and connection, especially during challenging times. ​They encouraged listeners to carry the spirit of kindness and empathy into the holiday season and the new year. ​

The Nutters Club will return to the airwaves on January 18th, 2026, continuing its mission to provide a platform for mental health discussions and support.
