Ep2: Surviving Primary

Another candid conversation between father and son, reflecting on childhood experiences.

Dad speaks to his austere upbringing in the inner-city slums of Auckland in the 50's and I recount a face-off between two Polynesian 'bodyguards' in the schoolyard.

We explore one of dad's random emails, this one a poem inspirited by a street sign (pasted below for your reference).

T'ward the Sun (by Matt Jelicich)

Caleb McHenry
A soldier on the land
Till he lay down his rifle
And ran his fingers
Through the sand
 
It spoke to him
Of memories
And seasons
Still to come
 
And how men
Like fruit can ripen
When they
Turn towards the sun
