  • Black Lives Matter: Be About It
    To say that I’m not nervous about putting this podcast out, would be a lie, but I have been moved to do so after the senseless murder of George Floyd, the consequent events in Minneapolis and the countless acts of violence against black people. We end the episode with the poignant words of Tameka Mallory.

    Sapati Apa (aka Disciple Pati) is a Samoan singer/songwriter, based in Auckland, NZ and is part of a new generation of young Pasifika women doing it for themselves and their community by speaking truth to power. 

    This is not a regular episode, I repeat THIS IS NOT A REGULAR QC EPISODE. 

    We chat about her sexuality not being an issue for her parents, and how it usually takes a back seat to her Instagram posts which often sees a DP scantily clad and standing on our necks; Beyonce, Living Legend; Church & more.

  • Tea & Cake with Niuafe Malupo

    Well known for his incredible works of art in the world of baking, the beautiful Niuafe shares the other side to his story that MANY Queer Pasifika & Maori Youth have experienced. These are things that we as the P&M community don’t like to talk about because everything is so fucking taboo and inconvenient. I am in awe of Niuafe and the way he has managed to come out of his situation with such grace and I’m so honoured that he was able to entrust me with helping him tell his story.
