A dimly lit tiki bar that lives in your head. Each and every podcast we bring you a new exotic cocktail followed by plenty of tiki talk, exotica tunes and whatever else your loyal hosts Sunshine, Pumpkin and Starshine care to dispense. Politics, religion and current events are all free game. This podcast is not for the kiddies, so remember to get a sitter before tuning in. Mahalo.
Heres a throwback episode, 6 years ago we celebrated our 4th year of podcasting. It's our four year podcasting anniversary. Join Sunshine and Pumpkin for the usual cocktail, music and uninhibited shenanigans. Since uncovering this episode we were reminded we better start planning our 10 year anniversary spectacular. Please stand by for that...

Read MoreSometimes 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.
