Where this station sitsComputed from the directory record of 4 Oct 2026

The Cheese sits in the tail of New Zealand's 67 entries. The tail is the part of a directory that goes missing first, and it is the part worth keeping: the head of every country's list is the same handful of national broadcasters, and everything that makes a dial local is behind them.

One recorded open in the public directory. That is a trace rather than a measurement, and it is the reason this page describes where the station sits rather than how popular it is.

The Cheese is the only station in New Zealand whose first tag is gen-x, out of 67 with pages here. Tags come from the broadcasters themselves, so this says the station describes itself in a way no other entry in New Zealand does, which is a narrower and more honest claim than saying it is the country's only gen-x station.

The stream is served from station.thecheese.co.nz, an address one other entry in New Zealand uses as well. A small shared host is usually a group of stations under one owner or one technical provider rather than a platform.

Their site is thecheese.co.nz, a domain registered in New Zealand. Where a station's own address and its listed country agree, the entry is a little more trustworthy than one where they do not.

These are counts of what people did inside the public radio-browser catalogue and the apps that read it, over the whole life of the entry. They are not our own figures and they are not an audience measurement: most entries in this catalogue sit under five all-time plays, so a small number here means the catalogue has little to say about this station rather than that nobody listens to it.

Broadcast by The Cheese. Stream served directly by the broadcaster. Their own site is at thecheese.co.nz.

Station details come from the public radio-browser directory and are reproduced as recorded there. If you run this station and something here is wrong, or you would rather the page did not exist, write to us from the support page and we will fix or remove it.
