Tomorrow night one of New Zealand sports most inspiring figures will share their story in an effort to explore the impact of addiction in Aotearoa.
Speaker and former pro boxer Dave Letele is presenting his new hour-long special 'Heavyweight with Dave Letele' tomorrow night.
In it he looks at the harm alcohol and substance addiction can do and asks why Māori and Pasifika are over represented in our statistics.
He also speaks to a number of guests who have lived experience on the subject, including an exclusive chat with former All Black Zac Guildford.
It airs tomorrow night at 8:30 on TVNZ 2 and will also be available on TVNZ+.
Dave Letele speaks to Jesse.
