Kiwiland #15 Tuatara – New Zealand's Creepy-Cool Living Fossil with a Third Eye!

Ever dreamed of a dinosaur that didn't go extinct and decided to hang out in New Zealand, munching bugs and staring at the sun with its extra eyeball? Say hello to the tuatara – Aotearoa's quirkiest reptile, the last of its ancient kind, and basically a "living fossil" that's been chilling since the time of the dinosaurs! In this wild episode of the Kiwiland Podcast, the Kiwiland Kids and their Dad geek out over these spiky, slow-moving superstars: Why do they have a mysterious third eye on top of their heads (spoiler: it's for sensing light, not selfies!)? How do they grow for 30 years straight and live up to 100? And what's the deal with their "spiny back" that makes them look like mini-dragons from a Kiwi fairy tale? From hidden island hideouts (they're only found in NZ!) to Māori legends where they're sacred guardians, we uncover hilarious facts, rate their "cool factor" , and imagine tuataras crashing a family BBQ. Perfect for New Zealand animal lovers, Kiwiana explorers, or anyone obsessed with weird reptiles and fun NZ wildlife!

Kiwiland #12 Town Statues

Ever wondered about those massive, head-scratching giant statues dotting New Zealand's towns? From the 7.5m Ohakune carrot (Carrot Capital, growing two-thirds of the North Island’s carrots) to the giant L&P bottle in Paeroa (home of the "World Famous in New Zealand" soft drink since 1907), the Kiwiland Kids and their Dad explore Aotearoa’s whacky roadside attractions! Join us for laughs as we dive into iconic Kiwiana sculptures like the Gore brown trout (Brown Trout Fishing Capital), Taihape’s gumboot (Gumboot Capital with its famous throwing festival), and Morrinsville’s mega cow, Millie, part of a herd of 65 uniquely painted cow statues. Discover why these oversized novelty statues—from Cromwell’s 8m stone fruit (apple, pear, apricot, nectarine) to Te Puke’s kiwifruit (Kiwifruit Capital)—became a quirky trend in the 1960s and 1980s, sparking small-town pride and luring road-trippers. We share fun facts, like how the Ohakune carrot started as an ANZ bank ad prop, and rate our favorites in this family-friendly adventure. Perfect for New Zealand travel enthusiasts, Kiwiana lovers, or anyone curious about funny town statues!
