Taringa Podcast

As we build up to Te Matatini 2023 we invite one of the giants of te ao kapa haka; Trevor Maxwell to join us. We hear untold stories of what happened in 1983 and how "2 weeks in Manutuke" propelled many kapa into existence. We also hear about the risks Trevor and his kapa took to push the boundaries of kapahaka.

In this episode, JJ Carberry joins us for a wānanga about the provisions of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and we kōrero about what we can do as a part of the resistance.

The Taringa crew kick-off 2023 with MC Grammar, gently easing everyone into the nuance of appositions i roto i te reo Māori.

Ka haere a Taringa ki Kahungunu ki ngā taringa huruhuru o te Atua o te Te Reo Māori. Ka whakarangatira a Tā Timoti Karetu i a tātou i āna kōrero mō ōna iho pūmanawa, te āhua o te reo hei ko tāna, me ētahi atu o ōna whakaaro mō ngā kaupapa Māori o te wā.

Erica is leaving the Taringa crew for a while, so this episode is all about her time on Taringa. We also welcome our new host - Kahurangi Maxwell nō Te Arawa. We have some fun while acknowledging Erica's contribution to Taringa; looking back at her first episodes, how the term "whana way of saying something" was coined, and also firing questions at her - te patapātai ki a Erica.

Delving deep back into the archives, Paraone and Snowy listen to some excerpts from the 1988 Aotearoa Traditional Māori Performing Arts Festival (now called Matatini) which was held in Whāngarei. We also have a special impromptu phone call with a prolific Māori composer to offer their insights to this event, who could it be?! Whakarongo mai to find out, e te iwi. 

Ka whakapuakina e Ngāhuia Murphy ana rangahau me ōna whakaaro mō ngā āhuatanga o te wahine Māori i ngaro i ngā tau. Ka kōrerotia te tapu me te mana o te wahine i mua te aupēhia o te mana o te wahine Māori e te Pākeha, e tōna whakapono, e āna tuhinga hoki. Dr Ngāhuia Murphy talks about her research and ideas regarding the status of wahine Māori, which had been lost in recent history. The sanctity and reverence of women (before their oppression by Western beliefs, ideologies and historical writing) is also discussed.

MC Grammar and the team have an in-depth discussion on the use of "mai", "nā" and "rā"

In this week's "Iwi O Te Wiki" episode, Dr Wayne Ngata shares kōrero about Te Aitanga a Hauiti

In honour of our national day of commemoration of the NZ Land Wars, this installment of Once Upon a Taima is a brief version of the battle of Ō-Rākau in 1864. This version is based on the account of Hitiri Te Paerata, a Chief of Ngāti Raukawa & Ngāti te Kohera, who fought in the battle himself - losing many of his whānau, including his Father and Brother.

ko te whakahokinga mai o ngā kōiwi tupuna ehara i te hanga. The repatriation of ancestors' bones is by no means an insignificant feat. We talk with Paraone about his experience travelling to Vienna to bring back our tūpuna. We discuss the preparation and the tikanga that was involved in carrying out such a task. Kia āta whakarongo e hoa mā ehara tēnei kaupapa i te hanga.
