New Zealand's former prime minister has publicly discussed her departure from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, according to the Salt Lake Tribune's weekly roundup. The podcast episode also covers the Church's purchase of luxury apartments and other stories ahead of October general conference.

The episode appears to be part of the Tribune's regular Mormon Land podcast series, which summarizes the week's top religion stories. Former prime ministers leaving faith communities typically generate discussion across religious and secular audiences, particularly when the figure held significant political office.
