What's it like to be a panther? With Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi
Kia ora fam! We're in season two BABYYYY and boy oh boy have I got the most amazing guest to start us off... I'm joined by the one and only Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi!! D plays Will Ilolahia in the TVNZ series 'The Panthers', which if you haven't watched yet - you need to get onto to educate yourself. D and I talk all things PANTHERS, life as a Polynesian in New Zealand and what's next on his agenda. To be honest it is just a bloody wholesome chat with a wholesome dude & one that really goes into depth about the dawn raids and historical racism in New Zealand and how WE can all be allies. A chat that is needed to be had and one that I am stoked to have experienced! That being said check out 'The Panthers' on TVNZ on Demand or Channel One. Dimitrius is incredible at what he does, as is everyone else in the series so it deserves a watch. Welcome to season two team - It's going to be wild! AND if there is one thing I ask you to do today EDUCATE yourself on the real NZ history, it's very different to what you think you know. Thanks again D - We love ya x
