Stories from the fringe of New Zealand society.

This week: Abel Tasman. Born in 1603, coming from a very lowly family, Gerard explains a bit about his history.

In 1636, he was the subject of a complaint - what happened with this?

In 1642, Tasman was the first known visitor to New Zealand.

This week marks the 375th anniversary between Maori and European. Gerard describes this as the start of the modern era for this country.

Tasman didn't head to New Zealand like Cook did... Gerard and Graeme discuss the difference.
