346 Don't Let Obama Take Our Rum

Sometimes it takes more than one try to get our podcast recorded and ready for you.  Sunshine and Starshine were in the lounge sipping the Forbidden Atoll when shortly after finishing the show, disaster struck.  We may never know where the original first 20 minutes of this episode went.  Lucky for everyone we were together again at a local casino and had time to bring the laptop.  Special thanks to our listeners who sent in some great questions that led to ample conversation.  And, a big Mahalo to Mr. Ho himself for sending an audio clip with details on the upcoming tour.  Listen to the whole hour for all the fun.  Plus, music by Jim Fiegan from his album Tiki Blues.
