Ours: Treasures from Te Papa Podcast
1) Jody Wyllie and Te Hau ki Tūranga
Our last taonga is not just an object, but a sacred place, and an "encyclopedia" of the history, traditions and art and culture of the people of Rongowhakaata.
2) Ours: Lady Pippa Blake and NZL32
This is a story about one of the most magical victories in New Zealand's sporting history, and the inspiring legacy that it has left in its wake.
3) Ema Tavola and the Isa Lei song
This is one of the most well-loved songs of the Pacific and its beautiful, wistful quality still endures - 100 years on from its debut.
4) The Topp Twins and the dolls
These knitted creations are a Topp tribute to the beloved alter-egos of New Zealand's most famous folk-singing/yodelling/comedy duo.

This spiky item helped a relatively unknown New Zealand athlete seize gold, and instant fame, at the 1960 Rome Olympics.
6) Ngila Dickson and the Xena costume
What happens when Greek mythology meets modern pop culture feminism, with a bit of Kiwi battler thrown in?

This patu parāoa (whalebone hand weapon) used during the New Zealand Wars offers a window or "little cobweb” into New Zealand’s past.
8) Leah McFall and the Suffragette medal
This little object is so small it could fit in your pocket, yet it's a powerful symbol of one woman's courage and activism in very difficult conditions.
9) Jamie Tuuta and the Strutt Painting
William Strutt's painted depiction of the New Zealand Wars may be almost 160 years old but, amid recent claims of racism and propaganda, it’s making headlines in 2018.
10) Sir Richard Taylor and the wētā
This nocturnal creature doesn't have the prettiest mugshot and can appear a little intimidating with its tusks, barbs, and armour.
