PostingCast #12: Whose History? Adam and Luke

With the release of the Aotearoa New Zealand History Curriculum, we've gone Full Dad History Podcast. So we brought Adam Weir and Luke Tipoki on to discuss how history has been taught in Aotearoa, how it might be taught now, and why some people are very upset about this.

PostingCast #11: Zoomers In The Age Of Omicron

We get Artie, Ashley, and August to talk about what the Omicron wave has been like for Zoomers. Spoiler alert: not great. This isn't as doom-laden a pod as we've done recently though, and it's important to hear these voices explain exactly why they're really, really pissed off right now.

PostingCast #10: It’s All Right w/ Byron Clark

We have one of Aotearoa's foremost observers of the far-right on. It's been a Busy Week, so we thought we'd talk about Occupy Christchurch in 2011, protesting in the 21st century and the organisation of the right and far right in Aotearoa. We enjoyed this one, we hope you do too!

PostingCast #9: Everything’s Fine Actually

Just us on this weeks episode, and we recorded this the day Aotearoa hit 6,000+ COVID-19 cases for the first time ever, the anti-vaccine camp was designated a COVID hotspot, Texas decided trans kids are illegal and there's something going off in Europe. 
 

PostingCast #8: The Incurious PolProf

Two eps in a week I bet you think that's pretty clever, don't you boy.
We are joined by Charlie @casuallycharlie and Cassie @shortcasserole because SHIT IS GETTING WORSE OUT THERE. We talk about Wellington, COVID, incurious political professors and the horrible feeling that this is only the beginning of some very bad stuff.
 
It's a cheerful episode then, enjoy!

PostingCast #7: Homeopathic Fascism

We are BACK. PostingCast returns on a cold February to heat you with some warm-ish takes about the Convoy, the Parliament Protest and the establishment of right-wing institutions with suspiciously strong funding streams. It's good to be back, it's a shame the world sucks.
 

PostingCast #4: 11/9/01 - Present

So yeah, it's 20 years since 9/11. Everyone's talking about it. We talk 9/11, 7/7, cultural shifts, the unimaginability of the future that wasn't, radicalisation between then and now. All that stuff. There's some jokes.

PostingCast #3: Parenting Whilst Gay

We talk being gay parents, raising a kid when you're not a heterosexual couple, why Peppa Pig and Paw Patrol suck and PostingDad gets far too into why Hey Duggee is a perfect thing to show your young ones.
 

PostingCast #2: The Curse of TERF Island

You voted for it, so we had to do it. We explore The Curse Of TERF Island. Why is Britain like that? Why are we like that? Why doesn't Aotearoa have to be like that. We revisit our teenage years, the horrors within, and also talk a bit about hope for the future. 
 

PostingCast #1: Has it come to this?

We say kia ora and begin the podcast by trying to do an introduction but then get absolutely sidetracked by thoughts on gender, society and all that stuff.
