Wallace Chapman

Wallace Chapman is a Presenter of the long running flagship radio show ‘The Panel’ on RNZ, where experts, analysis and hot taks collide, on one of New Zealand’s flagship opinion shows.

Chapman was Presenter for 10 years on the pub politics TV show ‘Back Benches’ - debating a panel of MP’s weekly before a rowdy live audience at the Backbencher Pub in Wellington.

He has written a book, out on Penguin books, called ‘Don’t Just do something, sit there - a manifesto for the slow living life.’

As a born and bred Aucklander, he has a passion for real estate, loves architecture, politics, and is addicted to ‘Million dollar Listing LA’ and ‘Drive to Survive’.

With partying days behind him, he loves sitting at home, with a craft beer, listening to Steely Dan.

If you’re looking for an MC with top notch interviewing skills, and ability to engage with humour and intellect, Wallace is your choice!
