This month we introduce a brand new schedule going live across the week May 16-22, and then repeating monthly shows for three weeks. That means your favourite shows (and six new ones introduced!) have their own time slot every week for you to to tune into. Te Pae continues to broadcast live Sundays weekly and then repeat for the week. We are trialling this format for this month. We’ll have a calendar up soon to make it easier to navigate.
