The best Aotearoa Podcast or more than just a podcast?
Podcasts have become a cultural phenomenon, and YouTube has become their vibrant home. But what exactly is a podcast on YouTube? Picture your favorite radio talk show, but in the digital realm. These podcasts offer a treasure trove of conversations, discussions and interviews that you can listen to or watch at your own convenience. And that’s where Altbays Table Talk comes into the picture.
Produced in Whitianga since February 2022, the Altbays Table Talk podcast is continuously reaching new audiences by facilitating heartfelt conversations that aim to bridge understanding among people with differing viewpoints, strengthen deep empathy, and support the development of emotional intelligence.
Our recent episodes have featured impactful guests and tackled hot topics:
In episode #210, Ngarino Te Waati took us on a profound journey into the essence of ĀIO, the Māori symbol of holistic wellness, exploring its transformative potential. Altbays Table Talk celebrates diverse viewpoints, and this episode perfectly embodied that spirit.
On show #212, Ngāti Hei Kaumātua Joe Davis, alongside kaiako Brandon Amoamo, shared invaluable wisdom about preserving Māori culture and discussed significant events in Aotearoa’s history. This historical episode emphasised respect, understanding, and unity.
We recently delved into the NZ Health System with Te Korowai’s nurse lead, Tayla Thompson, whose dedication and professionalism are truly commendable. Show #213 is a relevant and informative episode for anyone interested in enhancing community health.
Workplace bullying is a pressing concern, and we tackled it head-on in episode #214 with Godspower Chiabuotu, who wrote his PhD thesis on the topic. Godspower, the Community Representative of Hope Channel New Zealand, discussed education, the influence of religion in NZ and globally, and much more. This episode is a must-watch for those concerned about creating safer and more inclusive workplaces.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Since moving into our new studio, Altbays’ social media followers have doubled across various platforms. This incredible milestone is thanks to the growing number of people thirsty for real conversations that matter. As we continue this journey of discovery and learning, we invite you to join us.
Tune into Altbays Table Talk’s live streams on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm, and feel free to drop your questions. If you can’t catch our shows live, all episodes are available on YouTube and all major audio streaming platforms.
Altbays Table Talk isn’t just a podcast; we’re a community that believes in the power of dialogue to foster understanding, unity, and inspiration. We’re lifelong learners, always ready to explore new horizons and embrace diverse perspectives. So, grab a seat at our table, and let’s keep the conversation going!
