Taringa Podcast

E panoni ai i te tikanga te kawa rānei me aha te iwi? He aha rānei ngā whakaaro me wānanga?

What does it take to change kawa or tikanga? What are the considerations that should be deliberated upon.

We have a look back at some snippets of our older Iwi episodes to stir the barrel of mātauranga and prompt your curiosity. We look at eps 137, 178 & 192. If you haven't listened to these eps already - then go back and do so, there is gold in them hills!

Mokomōkai: He aha te mokomōkai he aha i panoni ai tēnei ingoa mō te upoko kua kōhuatia ki te ingoa o Toi Moko? What is mokomōkai? Why was this name for a preserved head changed to Toi Moko? Tamahou Temara joins the Taringa crew to explain this whakaaro and to elaborate on his commitment to the repatriation of the remains of our tūpuna from the far reaches of the globe.

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

Pūmuri = Postposed particles. Pū Tohu = Manner Particles. Tonu = a manner particle. Intrigued yet? Listen to this ep to find out the many uses of tonu with our in lingustic luminary Jarred Boon aka MC Grammar.

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.

Ka hono mai a Dayle Takitimu ki te whakaputa atu i ōna whakaaro mō te ture me te tiriti me etahi atu kōrero hei te tirohanga o tēnei roia. Kia areare mai hoki ō taringa ki te kīwaha e whakahuatia ana te pono me te whenua. Dayle Takitimu joins us to express her thoughts on law and the treaty along with other views. Also keep an ear out for the idiom that conveys truth stemming from the earth. Taringa hī! Taringa hā!!

In our last episode for what has been rather strange and challenging year, we talk about the shifting Tikanga around Christmas, and have a look back at some of our favourite moments from the year.

Te Wānanga o Aotearoa and the entire Taringa crew would like to thank everyone for their support, and wish everyone a very safe and happy festive season.

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.

Featuring the traditional story which was turned into an award winning childrens book, we are fortunate to have author Ben Ngaia join us to speak about the significance of this story and his work writing the book.

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.

Uia mai koia, whakahuatia ake; Ko wai te whare nei e? Ko Taringa! Welcome back to another addition of patapatai. We reflect on Mahuru Māori, look at non-binary taking on moko, what non-Māori and Māori may want to consider when it comes to pepeha and many more. Nō reira kia areare mai ō koutou taringa, kia huakina mai ō koutou ngākau hoki. Taringa Hi!
