In this episode, we journey into the vibrational worlds of sound, ancestry, and deep listening with Whaia, a Ngāti Kahungunu woman of Māori descent and First Nations sonic weaver and multi-instrumentalist. Raised between the salt of the Pacific and the red dust of the Australian desert, Whaia's voice carries ancient songlines, blending traditional Māori instruments, crystalline singing bowls, and her original mother tongue, the language of Te Rā, the Sun. We explore her work singing with whales, reclaiming cultural instruments once left silent in museums, and remembering the sacred oceanic highways navigated by her Polynesian ancestors, guided by the stars and whale ancestors. This is a conversation about song as medicine, the voice as ceremony, and reclaiming lineage through sound. We ask: what might the whales be singing to us now? What frequencies are we called to remember in order to heal ourselves and our waters? Stay on after the episode wraps to hear a special feature from Whaia's debut album WHAIA & WATER — the first of a twelve-part series known as her Sacred Sonic Sessions.

The New Zealand Nurses Organisation are urgently calling for more Māori nurses in the workforce, and that the health system could do a better job at incorporating tikanga into practices. This comes as a new report was released by Nuku on Waitangi Day, emphasising “culturally safe” staffing levels, which should be developed by Māori nurses, and defined by hapū and iwi. Despite making up 17% of the population, the organisation says Māori nurses only make up 7% of the workforce. News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to the Kaiwhakahaere of the New Zealand Nurses Organisation, Kerri Nuku (Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki) yesterday, about these calls from the organisation. They started off by asking her why the number of Māori nurses working in the country is such a concern.

This week on the Tuesday Wire...  For Dear Science this week, our expert Professor Allan Blackman chatted to us about cooking an egg perfectly, how fear works in the brain, and which gender tends to talk more.  In our weekly catchup with the National Party, Wire host Castor spoke to MP Tom Rutherford about the government's commitment to Te Tiriti in light of Waitangi day last week.  News and Editorial Director, Joel, spoke to the Kaiwhakahaere of the New Zealand Nurses Organisation, Kerri Nuku (Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāi Tai ki Tāmaki) yesterday, about the organisations urgent calls for more Māori nurses in the country's workforce.

The Cook Islands prime minister, Mark Brown, has provoked the wrath of NZ's foreign minister with his decision to head to China to sign a new strategic deal. By failing to consult on the pact, says Winston Peters, the Cook Islands was in breach of commitments made as a member of the New Zealand realm. Toby Manhire, Annabelle Lee-Mather and Ben Thomas put on their geopolitical goggles to assess the strain in relations, which comes as the tussle between China and the United States for influence in the Pacific enters a new phase, marked by Donald Trump pursuing an isolationist approach. Plus: How did Tama Potaka and co perform at Waitangi last week, and did Christopher Luxon come up with some new material for Ngāi Tahu in Akaroa? Join NZ's favourite political podcast live in Auckland on 9th April at Q Theatre. Host Toby Manhire will be joined by Annabelle Lee-Mather (Ngāi Tahu, Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Māmoe) (executive producer of The Hui) and Ben Thomas (former press secretary in the Key government) as they boldly step out of the studio and in front of an audience to cast a curious and caustic eye on New Zealand politics.

Iwi leaders have been laying out their goals for the year at Te Tii Marae as part of Waitangi commemorations, where they say Kotahitanga, or unity, has been high on the agenda. Ngāti Kahungunu iwi chair Bayden Barber spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Last week, the Minister for Science, Innovation, and Technology, Judith Collins, announced that the 30-year-old Marsden Fund would no longer support social sciences and humanities.  In 2024, Māori made up 13% of all Marsden funded investigators. By taking away the humanities and social sciences panel, that number plunges to just 5.5%. The decision has been harshly criticised by researchers across academic disciplines. Now, 80 Rutherford Discovery Fellows have come together to present an open letter to the Minister voicing their concerns, condemning the ‘damaging changes' to the Marsden Fund's terms of reference which they want to see reversed, immediately.  Producer Sofia spoke to Principal Social Scientist at GNS Science Te Pū Ao, Dr Nicholas Cradock-Henry, about this announcement and his concerns.  She also spoke to Kaihautū of Te Whare Whakatupu Mātauranga, Te Wānanga o Raukawa; and Honorary Adjunct Professor at Te Kawa a Māui - School of Māori Studies at Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington, Dr Carwyn Jones (Ngāti Kahungunu), about how the Marsden Fund cuts disproportionately impact Māori researchers.

For more on the passing of Kiingi Tuheitia we have Ngāti Kahungunu chair Bayden Barber, who's iwi hosted Tuheitia in June as part of a series of national hui discussing Māori unity. Barber spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Sydney, Australia's Bonepeople was a mid-to-late 1990s project, inspired by world music, rhythm and grooves, triphop, electronica, politics, and peace and Maori New Zealand's novelist Keri Hulme's Booker Prize-winning The Bone People.Spearheaded by dual songwriters and seasoned bassists Vanessa Lucas and Adrian Workman, the project at its height evolved into a 7-piece live band, before calling it quits in late 1998. Their new 3-song EP, "Deception, Love, and Hope", presents reimagined versions of key songs from that period; beautifully produced, reworked and remastered for 2024.Adrian Workman hails from the iwi (Māori tribe) named Ngāti Kahungunu. He is known for his work as bassist, cofounder and lead songwriter with New Zealand early 1980s post-punk outfit Vietnam, and later as a member of Sydney-based indie guitar popsters The Bhagavad Guitars, and melodic alt. rock band.Vanessa Lucas has roots in Sydney's vibrant Greek community. During the 1990s she played violin with indie pop/rock band Tall Tales & True, and bass, violin and backing vocals with the prominent indigenous Australian group Mixed Relations. She has also recorded with First Nations artist Kev Carmody, and Māori artist Jen Cloher, among others.A full album from Bone people was recorded through 1995-1997, but never released. In 2000, Vanessa and Adrian revisited three of the album tracks, with a view to reimagining the songs from their original conception. "Deception, Love and Hope" is available now. https://bonepeople.bandcamp.comhttps://amrap.org.au/artist/bonepeople-1QUEEN OF WANDS with DJ Nocturna Every Saturday on ModSnap Radio | KMOD: San Antonio3pm (HST), 5pm (PST), 6pm (MST), 7pm (CST), 8pm (EST)Radio: https://modsnapradio.comThank you for liking and subscribing and THANK YOU for your continued support !

The Lord of the Rings film trilogy won 17 Academy Awards and its legacy endures nearly 25 years after the first film's release. The trilogy's success has put its filming location, New Zealand, on the industry map. The motion picture business contributes at least $2.12 billion a year to New Zealand's economy. That's also been a boon for Indigenous cinema. Māori film critic and programmer Leo Koziol calls it a “renaissance". The recent Māori-led film The Convert, directed by Lee Tamahori, is garnering critical acclaim. We'll talk with Koziol and hear from Māori creatives who worked on Lord of the Rings about progress on Māori representation in film since then. GUESTS Leo Koziol (Ngāti Kahungunu and Ngāti Rakaipaaka), founder of the Wairoa Māori Film Festival, Indigenous editor at Letterboxd, and a programmer for the New Zealand International Film Festival Lawrence Makoare (Ngāti Whātua), actor Hammond Peek (Ngāi Tahu and Te Āti Awa), sound recordist and production sound mixer Ra Vincent (Te Atiawa), production designer and artist Dr. Tom Roa (Ngāti Maniapoto, Waikato, Ngāti Apakura), Tainui leader and Ahorangi (professor) in the University of Waikato's Te Pua Wananga ki te Ao Māori and Indigenous Studies

the essentials of being a native is an exhibition by Pōneke-based artist, Matt Tini (Waikato, Ngaati Tiipa, Ngāti Rakaipaaka, Ngāti Kahungunu), showing at the Corban Estate Arts Centre until the 22nd of June.  He uses photography and moving images to explore colonial influences on the representation of Indigenous peoples, and challenge the narratives upheld by both colonisers and the colonised.  Beth caught up with Matt about the essentials of being a native and what went into putting it all together.

Sofia and Joel spoke to queer Whanganui/Pōneke based artist ARDON ENGLAND (Ngāti Kahungunu, Te Ati Awa, Kahuranaki Marae) about his debut EP, 'That's Camp'.

The short video social media platform TikTok is mostly a source of entertainment and information for most Native users. A ban on the app in the United States would cut that off for TikTok fans, but also close off a source of income for several talented Native producers. A new law requires TikTok's China-based company to sell its interest in the app or lose its U.S. audience, which has a massive, mostly young base. We'll hear from Native TikTok producers and cybersecurity experts about what's behind the ban and what it means for users. GUESTS charlie amáyá scott (Diné), influencer, TikTok creator, and PhD candidate   Patuk Glenn (Iñupiaq), executive director of the Arctic Slope Community Foundation and content creator  Brandon Benallie (Diné and Hopi), cybersecurity expert Dr. Karaitiana Taiuru (Kai Tahu, Ngāti Kahungunu, & Ngāti Toa), Māori A.I., Data, and Emerging Tech Ethicist and Governance, IP, and Critical Indigenous Researcher

It's been almost two months since the national hui at Ngāruawāhia, a unifying gathering of Maori and Iwi from across the Motu in response to policies by the coalition government, that many have said are anti-Maori. Despite widespread outrage against these policies, the government has appeared to double down and proceed with controversial moves such as disestablishing the Maori health authority and the proposal of ACT's treaty principles bill.  In response, Ngāti Kahungunu have called for another national hui to be held in May this year at Ōmahu Marae in Heretaunga, Hastings, where a major point of discussion is expected to be centred around Kotahitanga, or the united Maori movement.  Oto spoke to Eru Kapa-Kingi, a legal academic at the University of Auckland of Te Aupouri and Ngāpuhi descent, and discussed the significance of the next national Hui.

Last week Nicholas spoke to Nicole Skews-Poole from the disinformation project about their report into a rise in Anti-Maori Racism. Disinformation about Te Tiriti o Waitangi has been used to garner attention and support for anti-Maori causes. Nicholas spoke to expert in Treaty of Waitangi law and legislation Dr Carwyn Jones of Ngāti Kahungunu and Te Aitanga-a-Māhaki descent, about the facts surrounding the legal obligations set out in Te Tiriti o Waitangi.

Napier City Council has backed out of plans to sell land to Kāinga Ora after a residents' association took legal action. 100 homes were to be built on Prebensen Drive - but neighbouring residents weren't consulted on the pre-approved decision. The council says it called off the sale because it didn't want legal fees to take away from cyclone recovery spending. The Mayor of Napier and Kāinga Ora were both unavailable for interviews. Ngāti Kahungunu chair Bayden Barber spoke to Corin Dann.

Building will get underway in Hastings soon, on the first temporary village for people forced out of their homes after Cyclone Gabrielle. Eleven relocatable homes will be placed at Omahu Marae before the end of the year. The government will lease the land from local hapu and has struck a deal with Ngāti Kahungunu's property arm, K3 Kahungunu Property, to build the houses. Our reporter Lauren Crimp has more.

An East Coast iwi which worked closely with Kiri Allan is worried about her wellbeing. The former Justice Minister has resigned from her ministerial roles after being charged with careless driving and refusing to accompany a police officer. Ngāti Kahungunu board director Bayden Barber spoke to Corin Dann.

East Coast iwi are waiting for more details on the government's plan to buyout property owners whose land cannot be rebuilt on. Cyclone Recovery Minister Grant Robertson says he expects the details to be worked through with councils and finalised this month. Morning Report asked Grant Robertson and Local Government Minister Kieran McAnulty for an interview but both declined. Iwi Ngāti Kahungunu still have over 100 whanau staying on marae, in emergency housing, motels and with relatives. Chair Bayden Barber says two marae are category three and will need to be moved. He spoke to Morning Report.

  An East Coast iwi is partnering with the government to give Māori and community groups more say in decisions about uplifiting children. Ngāti Kahungunu, its health and wellbeing advisory group Te Tumu Whakahaere o Te Wero, along with Oranga Tamariki have launched a new pilot programme, called 'Te Ara Mātua'. It aims to use early intervention to limit the need for Oranga Tamariki involvement. Our reporter Kate Green has the story.

Simon Hall (Nga¯ti Kahungunu) has spent two decades channelling the success of family business Tasti Foods into conservation. Hall has put nearly $12 million of profit into what has become New Zealand's largest private conservation project. The Forest Lifeforce Restoration Trust is re-establishing native New Zealand plants and animals at risk of extinction. Hall has purchased five significant wilderness blocks totalling 24,000 hectares. Hall carries out a range of projects, including setting a record last season for releasing 94 kiwi chicks into the wild. Simon Hall was a finalist in the 2023 New Zealand Environmental Hero of the Year Award, as part of this year's New Zealander of the Year accolades. A guest on last week's show, Dr Ellen Nelson won the Local hero of the Year Award. You can hear the interview with her here.

Iwi in Hastings want to transform an old fruitpackers lodge on police land into a revolutionary space to keep whānau out of prisons. But they're struggling to get support from the council because it backs on to flash new housing developments. Our reporter in Te-Matau-a-Māui Hawke's Bay Tom Kitchin has the story.  

Barnet Burns - urodził się w listopadzie 1805 roku w Kirby Ireleth w Anglii jako George Burns. W wieku 13 lub 14 lat został chłopcem okrętowym trafił na Jamajkę, został protegowanym działacza na rzecz walki z niewolnictwem Louisa Celeste Lecesne'a. W 1827 roku wypłynął do Rio de Janeiro, tam dostał posadę stewarda na barce Nimrod i tak 22 sierpnia 1828 roku trafił do Sydney w Australii. W Sydney przez 2 lata pracował jako sługa domowy u miejscowych notabli. W 1830 opuścił Sydney na brygu Elisabeth, udał się do Nowej Zelandii, gdzie w ciągu ośmiu miesięcy nauczył się języka Maori. Powrócił na krótki czas do Sydney, zadarł z miejscowym prawem i jak tylko nadarzyła się okazja wrócił do Nowej Zelandii, już jako kupiec, by handlować przede wszystkim Tęgoszem – zwanym nowozelandzkim lnem. W maju 1831 wylądował na wschodnim wybrzeżu Wyspy Północnej. Tam zasymilował się z lokalną społecznością, poznał wodza Ngāti Kahungunu którego nazywał Awhawee i nawet poślubił jego córkę Amotawę. Tak został Pākehā Māori - tak Maorysi nazywają białych którzy żyli pośród nich. Jako Pākehā posiadał miejscową moc tzw. manę i kontakty lokalne co ułatwiało handel. Po 11 miesiącach przyszły rozkazy zamknięcia stacji handlowej ale Barnet do Australii nie wrócił, został z ciężarną żoną. Ale nie zaznał spokoju. Wkrótce w wyniku agresji sąsiedniego plemienia musiał z wodzem i żoną uciekać. Dotarli do Poverty Bay, udali się w głąb lądu i przyłączyli do miejscowych plemion. Przygody naszego bohatera nabrały tempa. Jako wojownik poprowadził udany atak na wrogie plemię. Później podczas podróży jego grupa została zaatakowana przez klan Te Rangi. Wszyscy zostali zjedzeni, wszyscy za wyjątkiem Barneta – który zgodził przyłączyć się do napastników i handlować z nimi. Jednym z warunków była zgoda Burnsa na tatuaż. Zanim ten został ukończony Burns uciekł i wrócił do swojego plemienia, z silnym postanowieniem zemsty ale Te Rangi już nigdy nie spotkał. Plemię Burnsa przeniosło się w głąb lądu, w sojuszu z 3 innymi plemionami zniszczyli plemię Te Whakatōhea. Nasz bohater był świadkiem zjedzenia lub uwędzenia 60 członków tego plemienia. W 1832 Burns przeniósł się na północ wyspy by znów handlować lnem. Następne 2 lata były dla niego bardzo owocne, uznał je za najszczęśliwsze w życiu, w dowód pełnej asymilacji z lokalną kulturą dokończył rozpoczęte wcześniej tatuaże, został jednym z nielicznych Europejczyków posiadającym pełny tatuaż twarzy tzw. moko. Jednak w 1834 Burns opuścił swoją rodzinę (w tym nienarodzonego jeszcze syna Hori Waiti) i udał się do Sydney, a stamtąd rok później do Anglii. Jaki miał ku temu powód źródła milczą. Do nowej Zelandii prawdopodobnie już nigdy nie wrócił. W Anglii został showmanem i wykładowcą. Ubrany w strój Maorysów pokazywał podczas wykładów swój niezwykły tatuaż, wykonywał pieśni i tańce Maorysów opowiadał o swoich przygodach po drugiej stronie globu. W poszukiwaniu szczęścia udał się do Francji, tam założył rodzinę. Spekuluje się że mógł ponownie odwiedzić Nową Zelandię. Ale czy to prawda? W latach 40 wrócił do Anglii, ponownie się ożenił, z żoną kontynuował swoją showmańską działalność. Jako showman i wykładowca dożył wieku 53 lat, zmarł 26 grudnia 1860 roku na marskość wątroby. Jakieś 150 lat później pewien Nowozelandczyk nazywany Lake Davineer, wybrał się do Francji. Tam pokochał szanty a właściwie pieśni morskie. Gdy wrócił do Nowej Zelandii założył zespół Wellington Sea Shanty Society i, jak sam mówi, postanowił pieśnią żeglarską opowiedzieć historię Nowej Zelandii.

Formed in the Wellington, New Zealand suburb of Wainuiomata in late 1981 while in high school, at a time when Māori visibility in New Zealand's punk, post-punk, and alternative music scene was rare, the young four piece VIETNAM notably featured two members of Ngāti Kahungunu: vocalist Shane Te Kawenata Bradbrook, and bassist/songwriter Adrian Workman; alongside co-founder/co-writer and guitarist PeteDransfield, and drummer Leon Reedijk. The original four piece immediately disbanded upon the release of the Vietnam EP (Jayrem Records, 1985).Thirty years later, the eponymous EP was rediscovered by bloggers, YouTubers, and record collectors in the US and Europe, becoming widely hailed as a “lost classic” of New Zealand music. In late 2016, Spanish label BFE Records reissued Vietnam as a full-length LP, with the addition of bonus archival live and demo tracks. To celebrate, the original bandmates reunited for the first time since 1985 in Wellington, NZ, to play what was intended as one last show in February of 2017. A roaring success, the reunion show encouraged the band to stay together long enough to create the new album called "This Quiet Room."https://vietnambandnz.comhttps://vietnamnz.bandcamp.comSubscribe to my monthly mailing list for the latest music news, updates and my next interviews and events:  http://eepurl.com/gtw6PPQUEEN OF WANDS with DJ NocturnaEvery Saturday on ModSnap RadioKMOD: San AntonioListen :   http://modsnapradio.comPlaylist and podcast:    https://djnocturna.comYouTube:   https://www.youtube.com/c/DJNocturna

Jeremy was born and bred in Brisbane, Australia and moved back to New Zealand when he was just 17 to learn te reo and to immerse himself in te ao Maori. His was a journey of discovery, learning and challenges. Now at the tender age of 34, he is a family man, director of te reo, tikanga (customs) and mātauranga (knowledge) for Ngāti Kahungunu Iwi Incorporated. He is a government-certified translator, represents the east coast tribes of Te Tairāwhiti in the government's Māori language revitalisation strategy and directs cultural-renewal initiatives for Ngāti Kahungunu, the iwi on his mother's side—along with running a kōhanga reo with his wife. In this conversation with Jeremy, Joe explores what drove Jeremy to learn more about his tipuna, his heritage and his passion for learning te reo and the challenges along the way. This is a compelling story of drive and that innate desire to connect! Come join us - #LeshGo!

The Dead Ladies Show is a series of entertaining and inspiring talks about women who achieved amazing things against all odds, presented live on stage, usually in Berlin. This podcast is based on that series. Because women's history is everyone's history. In this episode: we go to New Zealand! Or, more accurately, New Zealand comes to us. Featured are two talks from the first ever NZ Dead Ladies Show, recorded live during LitCrawl Wellington, produced by Pirate and Queen. Presenter Jesse Bray Sharpin, a renegade historian, tells us about Constance Barnicoat, a multilingual journalist and interpreter, intrepid mountaineer, and all-around badass. And Maraea Rakuraku, a Tūhoe and Ngāti Kahungunu playwright, poet, and more presents a personal story about how Dr Irihapeti Ramsden — a Māori nurse, writer, educator & anthropologist who campaigned for the healthcare needs and cultural recognition of indigenous peoples — impacted her life and work. Maraea provided us with a little background about Captain Cook, who she speaks about in her talk: Indigenous Māori and indeed most of the Pacific, have a conflicted relationship with British Explorer, Captain James Cook (1728-1779) credited (still) with having ‘discovered', in 1769, populated for centuries by Polynesians – Aotearoa/New Zealand. This voyage and the two that followed, in (1772-1775) and (1776-1779) were precursors to colonisation, that would overwhelm Indigenous less than 70 years later and lead to the signing of The Declaration of Independence in 1835 followed by Te Tiriti o Waitangi (The Treaty of Waitangi) in 1840. These agreements reinforced the sovereignty and rights of the Indigenous peoples, who at the time were the majority peoples. Introduced disease, combined with the systematic economic, social and spiritual dismantling of cultural systems had a devastating impact upon the Indigenous population, which is still felt to this day. And here's a translation of her opening words: Through my mother, I am Ngāti Kahungunu ki te Wairoa Through my father, Maungapōhatu is my mountain Tauranga, is my river Ngāti Rere is my hapu, Tūhoe is my tribe, I am Maraea Rakuraku Greetings to you all. Also, DLS-cofounder Katy Derbyshire joins host/producer Susan Stone to explain how a Berlin show got to New Zealand, and discuss the complexities of varying viewpoints on history.
