From Nights, 8:40 pm on 11 November 2025

Have you ever been standing in the shower, when suddenly, the noise in your brain clears and, in its place, appears the perfect thought?

That's a Shower Thought, and RNZ's Nights is aiming to answer those unshakeable questions lurking in the back of your mind. 

Tonight, our guest Margie Thomson discusses how she became a ghostwriter for musician Stan Walker, and mental health advocate Sir John Kirwan and what it all entails.
