Te Rangi Hiroa (Sir Peter Buck) on "The Coming of the Māori" (1925),[3] Ernest Lord Rutherford ( "Electricity and Matter" (1928)[4] and Sir Howard Florey "Penicillin" (1944)[5]. Not all were about science, for example Sir Edmund Hillary on "The New Zealand Antarctic Expedition" (1958) [6]. The list includes several Governors-General: Lord Bledisloe (1932)[7], Viscount Cobham (1960)[8] , Dame Catherine Tizard (1991)[9], as well as the scientist and former Governor of South Australia Sir Mark Oliphant (1992)[10]

The 76th Lecture[11] was delivered in 2019 by Professor Gideon Henderson of Oxford University: "Taking it back: removal of CO2 from the atmosphere to limit climate change" after an opening lecture by Cawthron’s Dr Susie Wood on the "Lakes 380" project[12].
Most of the lectures are available from the Cawthron website in pdf format[13] or, since 2013, as video recordings.
