Tuarihia ki runga, tuarihia ki raro, tuarihia te rongo o ngā waiata, o ngā kura o te whānau Tuari. This week we are honoured to host the Tuari brothers and their infamous sister, boss, māngai Ani Piki Tuari. A whānau spoilt with a wealth of musical talent, haka experience and te ao Māori tirohanga. They share with us their views of stage from musicals, haka and song recording.

In this episode, our hosts listen to snippets of an interview from 1978 with the famous (or infamous) Whaia McClutchie. Whaia speaks about a range of topics, mainly to do with the role of women on the Marae.

This week, our hosts look at some tikanga pertaining to flags and the meaning that has been imbued into them as iwi, hapū and marae.

With this year representing 160 years since the battle of Ōrākau, our hosts reflect on some lesser-known anecdotes, and the importance of remembering all land wars that shaped Aotearoa as we know it today. Whakarongo mai.
