  • Great storytelling

    Investigative journalism focussing on the stories of unusual, historical characters, some repugnant, some less so, given the laws of Aotearoa NZ at the time. Another excellent RNZ podcast.

  • Wonderful NZ storytelling

    Recently discovered and now easily treasured as a firm favourite! Delightfully told with modern viewpoints - a real treasure trove of historical kiwi facts and people. Some of the content is tough to hear at times (such as scientific racism) but it’s done with honesty and dignity, that have me wanting to learn more and more. Well done RNZ!
