Whakaaro Tahi is Waatea’s afternoon talkback show, bringing together diverse voices from across Aotearoa for open, honest, and thought-provoking kōrero.

This is a space where whakaaro are shared, challenged, and explored — giving listeners the opportunity to have their say on the issues shaping our communities, our whānau, and our future. From politics and current affairs to social issues and everyday life, Whakaaro Tahi invites robust discussion grounded in kaupapa Māori.

With a strong focus on connection and community, the programme amplifies Māori perspectives while welcoming a wide range of views, encouraging respectful debate and meaningful dialogue.

Driven by the voices of the people, Whakaaro Tahi is where opinions meet, conversations grow, and the nation talks back.
