Te Radar’s Antarcticana
HILARIOUS TRUE TALES FROM THE FROZEN SOUTH
Amateur historian, and the country’s worst television gardener, Te Radar presents Antarcticana, an illustrated comedic lecture on all things Antarctic.
He asks the questions you may never have thought of, and provides answers you never realized you wanted to know, about the land that Capt. Robert Scott called” This Awful Place”. The show may also shatter any illusions you had about the innocence of penguins.
After travelling to the icy continent by ship in 2012 as part of Gareth Morgan’s Our Far South project, Te Radar realised he knew even less about the place than he thought, and was captivated by the stories of others who went there and suffered.
As Te Radar says, “For early explorers it was so remote and perilous it may as well have been the Moon. If they got into trouble, they could rest easy in the knowledge it was the last trouble they’d would ever get into.”
Te Radar’s Antarcticana is a funny (and educational) romp through Antarctica’s fascinating past and present. The show focuses on the heroism and hilarity that has shaped the icy continent’s history.
With the aid of a visual presentation rich with photographs, maps, and film, this show proves that what we think we know about Antarctica is just the tip of the iceberg.
Not only have we got Te Radar's Antarcticana, but we now have

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
