Taringa Podcast

Whatahoro Fox joins us to speak about his Iwi from South Waiarapa.

Mahimahi, ekeeke, onioni. Hei tēnei puni o tā tātou punua pāoho ka matapakihia te kaupapa o te mahi ai hei tā te tirohanga Māori. In this episode we look the act of copulating from a Māori perspective. Kia areare mai ō koutou taringa, kia huakina mai te whare o Hinengaro.

We give examples of some errors that can happen when writing or reciting karakia, and incorrect tikanga practices around the building & opening of Whare. We then discuss the effects that these mistakes can have on the intentions of important kaupapa.

Diving back into the precious ‘Ngā Taonga’ archives, this time we are at the NZ Polynesian Festival in Lower Hutt in February, 1979.

Listen along as we kōrero in depth about a few of the items that were performed at the event.

Ka tau mai a Dr Enoka Murphy ki te pae kōrero i tēnei puni o Iwi o te Wiki ki te whakahuahua i ngā kōrero motuhake mō Ngāti Manawa.

A muri ake i tētahi paku whakatā, ka hoki mai anō te wāhanga o Ngā Taonga. Ka hoki ki mua ki 1972 ki te Whetiwara Poronīhia tuatahi ki te whakarongo ki te āhua o te kapahaka o te wā me te kite i ngā kākano i whakatōngia i aua tau kua hua mai ai i ēnei tau. After a short hiatus, Ngā Taonga returns to our regularly scheduled programming. We go back in time to 1972 to the first Polynesian Festival to listen to the style of kapahaka of the time and to witness the seeds planted then that have since borne fruit in today.

Hari huri tau ki a Taringa! Special guests Che Wilson and Rangi Matamua join us in the film studio for our 4th birthday. We answer some audience pātai, and speak in depth about the Tikanga of Matariki and Puanga.

Back into the archives we go - listening to some examples of Pōkeka and Kaioraora - chants and songs of derision, hatred, cursing and conflict.

We are privileged to be joined by Hemi Tai Tin, a Kaiako Rangatira from Te Whare Tū Taua o Aotearoa (The International School of Māori Weaponry), who speaks in depth with us about this ancient art form.

Back for 2021, our hosts answer a few questions around learning te reo Māori.

He Rangatira o te mahi Raranga, Karl Leonard, joins us to talk about his elaborate craft of weaving.

Aperahama Edwards phones in to talk to us about this Iwi from the Northern East coast of Aotearoa - Ngāti Wai, unified by its descent from one of the oldest lineages in Taitokerau, Ngāti Manaia.

Paraone and Snow talk about educational calendars, te reo rua and academic referencing in a Māori framework.

Our first ever live episode! We set up at our Hamilton Mangakōtukutuku campus with a live audience and discuss how Māori language is changing with the times.

A kaimahi of Ngā Taonga sound and vision talks with us about the importance of archiving, the inner workings of looking after the content, and also shares a few of her own favourites with us too.
