EP 2 - Azura Lane

Longtime friends and children of South Auckland, Mariner Fagaiava, host of Flava Drive, and Allyssa Verner-Pula, emerging academic, are proud to present 'Island Roots, Auckland Ways'.

Girl, they didn’t axe us after the first episode so surely we’re fine!

We were really honoured to kōrero with our Southside sista, Azura Lane. So south she and her Pukekohe peeps drank at barn parties. Zu is raw about being Māori but not knowing Te Reo. Our now Flava Brekky host has hosted every single show on the station and she shares that story of patience too. Malo le fa’amalosi Zu, we love ya.

Both in their early 20s, Mariner and Allyssa share a love of cheap eats, the club and are quietly comfortable with living at home. Join them and special guests for weekly episodes covering everything from mental health, speaking your language, and the highs and lows of life.

New episodes every Tuesday.

'Island Roots, Auckland Ways' is part of the Flava Podcast Network.
