Some people have rightly pointed out that Guy and Karen’s pronunciation of some New Zealand place names... specifically Māori ones... is pretty poor! Last week we tried the South Island, this week they try and work on their "North Island" or "Te Ika-a-Māui" place name pronunciation skills. Huge thanks to Josiah Komene (@josiahkomene on Tik Tok) from TahuFM for helping, that man has the patience of a saint.
