Only in Aotearoa - First Episode

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2017

Man I’m so glad to have subtitles or I would not have been able to understand that all … I only know like basic reo like kia ora, that’s all …
– James Roque
What attracted me to this rōpū is the kaupapa that’s centred around amplifying an alternative New Zealand take on what’s funny.
– Writer Coco Solid (Jessica Hansell), on website The Spinoff, 15 August, 2017
Sadly colouring competitions were a gateway drug to a thriving painting career. Shona even published three books on indigenous art in secret, obviously penned under a male pseudonym, but her tragic life path didn’t stop there.
– From a skit on wahine who are ‘secret achievers’
