Description

Brenna and Joe close out a month of New Zealand programming with a look at Barry Crump's 1986 novel Wild Pork and Watercress, as well as Taika Waititi's long-in-development adaptation from 2016.

We're talking about how prolific Crump is, Waititi's humour, and the depiction of Māori youth across several texts.

Plus: montages, survivalism, tanks, and justice for Aunt Bella!
