Hawaii's Best - Guide to Travel Tips, Vacation, and Local Business in Hawaii
You spent thousands on a Hawaii vacation and still feel like something's missing.It's not the beaches or the food. It's the language, the culture, the deeper connection that turns a vacation into something more meaningful.
The legendary surfer has grieved the deaths of her adoptive mother, stepmother and birth mother. Only later in life did she realise her drive to win came from a place of loss, and Layne needed to look inward to find her place off the podium.Layne is a legendary surfer who is the first person ever to win six consecutive world titles.Since her childhood spent on Sydney's Northern Beaches, Layne has loved being in the water but it wasn't until later in life that she realised her relentless drive to win came from a confusion about who she belonged with on land.Part of her drive to prove her worth and her place came from her experiences of loss.When Layne was 6 years old, her adopted mother Valerie died. Then, her step-mother Christina died after a long battle with breast cancer.Twenty years after Layne reconnected with her birth mother, Maggie, she flew to America to be by Maggie's side as she took her last breaths.Losing three mothers in one lifetime caused Layne to equate motherhood with loss and abandonment. But after retiring and learning to slow down, Layne turned inward and finally found herself along the way.Content warning: this episode of Conversations contains discussion of adoption and grief.Layne's memoir Beneath the Waves was written with Michael Gordon and published in 2009 by Penguin.Her latest book, Awake Academy, was written with Tess Brouwer and is published by Penguin.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris.

On Wednesday Mark Levin Show, this debt crisis in America predates President Trump – it stems from a massive welfare state which expanded to include illegal aliens, unchecked waste, fraud, and abuse costing hundreds of billions annually, and out-of-control Marxist-socialist policies. Congress is unable to fix this problem because Democrats want to spend even more. Unchecked fiscal irresponsibility risks economic collapse, worthless currency, stagflation, societal dislocation, and violent riots if the system fails. We need to ensure that our republic survives! Also, why are we negotiating with Iran? If Iran unexpectedly accepts all U.S. demands, an agreement might be signed, allowing the regime to survive. Failing to eliminate the Iranian regime now is unconscionable and immoral, as it will leave future generations to confront a far more dangerous Iran armed with 50,000 ballistic missiles capable of striking the entire U.S. mainland, Hawaii, and Alaska, plus nuclear warheads. Later, the House of Representatives narrowly passed the SAVE America Act requiring voter ID by a vote of 215 to 214, with Rep Thomas Massie joining with the Democrats. ID is routinely required for everyday activities like entering government buildings, courts, buying alcohol or cigarettes, renting a car, signing a lease, getting a mortgage, and more—yet Democrats oppose it for voting. Voter ID protects against fraud like illegal voting, double voting, or votes by the deceased, making it a civil rights issue where fraudulent votes dilute legitimate ones. The only reason to oppose it is to enable fraud. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
Sarah Wayne Callies sits down to talk about her childhood, her path into acting, and what led to her being cast as Dr. Sara Tancredi on Prison Break. She opens up about the sudden fame that came with the show, how she prepared for the role by visiting real prisons, and how filming Prison Break permanently changed her perspective on incarceration and the criminal justice system. Sarah also shares behind-the-scenes stories from set, the emotional weight of playing a character inside prison walls, and how that experience later influenced her work, including being cast on The Walking Dead. _____________________________________________ #SarahWayneCallies #PrisonBreak #SaraTancredi #TVInterviews #BehindTheScenes #HollywoodStories #ActingCareer #youtubepodcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Sarah Wayne Callies: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahwaynecallies/?hl=en Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCi6Syro1Uk5qZ-mf_q4v6lQ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Filming Prison Break Inside a Real Prison 01:00 Career Growth, Podcasting & Season 3 Absence 03:50 Fan Reactions and Returning to Prison Break 05:30 On-Screen Chemistry and Cast Behind-the-Scenes Stories 07:20 Growing Up in Hawaii and Cultural Identity 10:30 Storytelling, Inspiration, and Gender Perspectives 14:00 College Dreams and Discovering the Power of Story 17:00 Theater, Family Influence, and Why Stories Matter 21:30 Dartmouth College, Culture Shock, and Life Lessons 25:00 Marriage, Early Career, and Connecting With Fans 28:00 Watching TV in Prison and Prison Break Reactions 33:00 Expectations vs Reality of Prison Life 36:00 Rehabilitation, Humanity, and the Impact of Incarceration 40:00 Private Prisons, For-Profit Systems, and Policy Shifts 44:00 Prison Camps, Fire Programs, and Second Chances 47:00 Reentry, Halfway Houses, and Breaking the Cycle 52:00 Finding Work After Prison and Systemic Barriers 55:00 Public Perception, Compassion, and Moral Complexity 01:01:00 Visiting a Real Prison and Humanizing Incarceration 01:10:00 Casting Stories and Sara Tancredi's Evolution 01:18:00 Fandom, Privacy, and Life in the Spotlight 01:23:00 Fame, Pressure, and Public Scrutiny 01:30:00 Acting Challenges and Favorite Prison Break Moments 01:36:00 Transitioning to The Walking Dead and Set Culture 01:44:00 COVID, Resetting Priorities, and Family Focus 01:48:00 Reflection, Accountability, and Making Amends 01:55:00 Giving Back, Extreme Empathy, and Advocacy 01:58:00 Hospice Work, Prison Reform, and Ongoing Mission 02:00:00 Final Reflections and Gratitude Learn more about your ad choices.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Thursday. Griffin Warner returned to the Pregame.com podcast network and the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed with a compact Thursday card, looking to build on a college basketball win with Tulane on February 11 and push for a second straight result. The slate featured a single English Premier League match, a Copa del Rey semifinal first leg, and a lighter than usual college basketball board, before closing with a best bet and promotional offer. The lone Premier League fixture sends Arsenal across London to face Brentford, with the visitors installed as three quarter goal favorites on the road. Arsenal sit atop the league conversation after consecutive second place finishes in recent seasons and are navigating domestic and European commitments, including the Premier League title race, the Champions League, the Carabao Cup, and an upcoming FA Cup tie. Manager Miguel Arteta has been reluctant to rotate heavily, and squad depth has been tested amid a crowded schedule. Brentford, meanwhile, have been strong at home, earning notable results against bigger sides and benefiting from not competing in Europe. The total is set at two and a half shaded to the over, reflecting Brentford's scoring ability against an Arsenal side that typically controls possession and limits shots. Arsenal generate significant production from set pieces, while Brentford employ a similar approach with long throws and structured restarts. Warner indicated interest in Brentford plus three quarters of a goal, preferring to wait for a potential move to plus one as public support flows toward the league leaders. In Spain, Barcelona visit Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semifinals. The two leg format places added emphasis on home performance, with the return match set for Barcelona. Atletico are slight home underdogs at a quarter goal, while Barcelona are favored to advance at minus 252 compared with Atletico at plus 209. The total sits at three and a quarter shaded to the over, consistent with Barcelona's attacking profile and defensive vulnerabilities. Atletico have long projected as a third place side in Spain, guided by an experienced manager and bolstered by increased spending that has shifted them toward a more offensive identity. Warner noted that a strong first leg result is critical for Atletico given the difficulty of the return trip, and expressed measured interest in the home underdog while acknowledging the market respect shown toward Barcelona. The college basketball schedule opens with Kennesaw State hosting Middle Tennessee State, followed by Missouri Valley Conference action including Charleston laying a point to Hofstra and Southern Illinois favored by 12 over Evansville ahead of Arch Madness. Memphis at North Texas stands out as the marquee matchup, with Memphis a one point road favorite and a total of 136.5. North Texas sits outside the current American Conference tournament picture and would benefit significantly from a home win. Memphis have shown recent improvement with victories over UAB and FAU but have been inconsistent and thinner on talent. North Texas, under new leadership after Ross Hodge departed for West Virginia, continue to lean on defense and a deliberate pace. Warner expects tempo control from the home side in what profiles as a grind. Additional matchups include Oregon State catching eight and a half at San Francisco, Belmont laying five to Northern Iowa after Bradley's overtime win, and a series of Big West contests featuring Hawaii, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine, and others. The episode concluded with a promotional code, Jumper20, valid for 20 percent off purchases at Pregame.com through February 23, and a best bet on under 136.5 in Memphis at North Texas, anticipating a low scoring contest dictated by the Mean Green.

It has been a month since hundreds of members of a northern Ontario First Nation were put in hotels across the province after a water crisis. Many, however, have chosen to stay at the reserve. As Dan Karpenchuk reports, a state of emergency was declared in early January after a parasite was found in water samples and led to dozens of cases of gastrointestinal illnesses. Medical staff left Kashechewan a week ago after consultation with community leaders, but they say residents who remain will still be able to access healthcare services. Lisa Westaway is the regional executive for Indigenous Services Canada. “We've worked with Weeneebayko area health authority, Orange, which is emergency response and the ministry of health to ensure that services are in place for community members who choose to remain in Kashechewan.” Band leaders in Kaschewan declared a state of emergency on January fourth after damage to the water system. That led to sewage seeping into people's homes creating public health and safety issue. More than 1500 people were sent to communities across Ontario including Niagara Falls, Timmins, and Kingston. Less than 400 decided to stay. Tyson Wesley is the executive director of the Kashechewan First Nation. “A lot of people that are currently in the community are deciding to stay. However we're trying to develop some plans to allow them to be there such as our community across the river Fort Albany. So we're trying to see how they can access health care.” More than 60 band members at the fly-in community on the western shore of James Bay have been diagnosed with the parasite cryptosporidium, which causes gastrointestinal symptoms such as cramps, diarrhea, nausea, fever, and vomiting. Most cases are resolved without medication over a couple of weeks. It is still unclear when people will be able to return home. Tribal leaders from across the country spoke out this week at a U.S. Senate hearing against possible changes within the Small Business Administration (SBA) program that supports Native entities. The Alaska Desk's Alena Naiden from our flagship station KNBA reports. The 8(a) Business Development Program provides federal contracting opportunities to socially disadvantaged individuals or tribes. U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) co-led the oversight hearing focused on the program. “It delivers mission-critical work for civilian and defense agencies, and it promotes economic development in Native communities while helping to fulfill the federal trust responsibility.” But over the past year, the federal SBA and other agencies have launched audits into the program, and announced a sweeping suspension of companies participating in it. U.S. Defense Secretary aka U.S. War Secretary Pete Hegseth also announced on social media last month that his department would be “taking a sledgehammer to the oldest [Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion] DEI program in the federal government.” Murkowski says that Native-owned businesses participate in the program because Congress recognized the government's trust and treaty obligations to Native communities. “That was not based on race, it was not based on DEI.” Katherine Carlton (Iñupiat) is the president of Chugach Alaska Corporation. Her organization has participated in the program for decades and has benefitted from its economic opportunities. “For us, it provided the pathway to recover from the devastating Exxon Valdez oil spill in our region.” Polly Watson is vice president of operations at Bristol Bay Native Corporation and says her organization has several businesses participating in the 8(a) program. Watson says the corporation reinvests the revenue it receives through government contracts back into the community. One example is a partnership with the state Division of Motor Vehicles to deliver mobile services. “To bring real ID and driver's license services to seven villages in the Bristol Bay region serving rural residents.” Tribal leaders and senators from Nevada, Oklahoma, Montana, and Hawaii all spoke in support of the Native participation in the 8(a) program.

Rick Beck's modern cast and carved figurative glass sculptures are inspired by industrial and architectural works as well as the human form, with an emphasis on formal aspects. Interested in playing the volumes of mass against the rhythm of the lines, Beck enjoys the interplay of the visual versus the verbal, creating art that challenges the eye as well as the mind. Beck states: "My wife, Valerie, got me a book about the competitive relationship between Picasso and Matisse. Their artistic dialogue about the figure has fired my imagination, especially the way they shared and borrowed images and ideas from one another, as well as from history and literature. Between this book and visits to the Art Institute of Chicago, I've been inspired by the use of shape, form, and mass to create something more universal than the literal subject." A studio artist who was based in Spruce Pine, North Carolina, for 30 years before moving to Hawaii in 2020, Beck began working in glass at Hastings College in Nebraska, where he received his BA. The artist received his MFA from Southern Illinois University, where he studied with Bill Boysen. He was awarded residencies at the Appalachian Center for Crafts 1989 to 1991, and in 1994 received a Visual Arts Fellowship from the North Carolina Arts Council, followed by a National Endowment for the Arts regional Visual Arts Fellowship from the Southern Arts Federation in 1995. A student of the Studio Glass movement, Beck has assisted at Pilchuck Glass School, assisting artists Curtiss Brock and Jan Mares, as well as at the Penland School of Craft. Beck currently shares a studio with wife Valerie Thomas Beck in Hakalau, Hawaii. Valerie has been a designer and co-conspirator to Rick since 1984. Both artists have been artists-in-residence at Penland School of Crafts, North Carolina, (1991-94) and have also been instructors there. Their blown glass work consists mainly of vessels – canvasses for imagery based on dreams and experiences ranging from the sublime to the ridiculous. These vessels document their lives while providing beauty and pleasure. Since moving to the Big Island, Beck's challenge in making glass work is two-fold. First, to create work without using fossil fuels or adding to the demand for capacity on the electrical grid. Their new studio is powered by a solar/photo voltaic and battery system. Second, to create work that excites and challenges his concepts of art inside these new energy parameters. For him, formal aspects are crucial. Beck stretches and manipulates common shapes and objects, reducing the objects to pattern and geometry. Currently, he is producing work focusing on the geometry of life, plant, and human forms. Beck's work will be on view in 2026 at Blue Print Gallery, Dallas, Texas, opening February 26; at Hidell Brooks Gallery, Charlotte, North Carolina, in May; at Blue Spiral 1 group show, Asheville, North Carolina; and at Ken Saunders, Chicago, Illinois. His work is also represented by Raven Gallery, Aspen, Colorado.
The primary focus of today's discussion centers on the severe weather conditions impacting various regions across the United States, with particular emphasis on the blizzard warnings currently in effect for Alaska. I delineate the perilous situation along the Bering Strait coast, where visibility has been markedly reduced, creating treacherous travel conditions.

According to ABC News, he brought Puerto Rican culture front and center, opening with "Tití Me Preguntó" amid a sugar cane field scene, then crashing through a market roof set for "BAILE INoLVIDABLE" and "NUEVAYoL." Dressed in an all-white jersey emblazoned with "Ocasio," he waved a Puerto Rican flag, handed a Grammy to a young boy on stage symbolizing immigrant dreams, and closed with fireworks during "DtMF."CBS News reports guest stars lit up the performance: Lady Gaga in a salsa twist on "Die with a Smile," Ricky Martin on "Lo Que Le Paso a Hawaii," plus Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Karol G, and Pedro Pascal. The setlist, per Business Insider, pulled from hits like "Yo Perreo Sola," "Safaera," "Party," "Monaco," "El Apagón," and tracks from his Grammy-winning album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, the first all-Spanish project to snag Album of the Year just a week prior.The show marked history as the first primarily Spanish-language halftime spectacle, sparking massive buzz. Apple Music data shows Bad Bunny listens spiked 7x post-show, with "DtMF," "BAILE INoLVIDABLE," and "Tití Me Preguntó" topping streams; lyrics views for "BAILE INoLVIDABLE" surged 119% in the US. It even featured a real wedding officiated onstage, as a Bad Bunny rep confirmed to the Associated Press.Reactions poured in. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell hailed him as one of the world's great artists, but President Trump blasted it on Truth Social as "absolutely terrible" and "disgusting," per CBS News, amid Bad Bunny's prior ICE critiques in his Grammy speech. Conservative group Turning Point USA countered with a Kid Rock stream.Social media and music sites buzz with his global impact, from Shazam surges to tour announcements like Barcelona dates in May. This performance cements Bad Bunny's reign, blending reggaeton, plena, and personal storytelling.Thanks for tuning in, listeners—come back next week for more.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-thirtieth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by MAJ Amy Beatty, the Task Force Executive Officer Observer-Coach-Trainer from Task Force Sustainment (Division Sustainment Support Battalion / Light Support Battalion) on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guest is MAJ Alice Bechtol, the Executive Officer for the 325th Light Support Battalion of 3rd Mobile Brigade, 25th Infantry Division. The 325th Light Support Battalion, known by its Hollywood call sign “Mustang” and guided by the motto “Support to the Front,” serves as the sustainment backbone of 3rd Brigade Combat Team. Stationed in Hawaii and aligned to fight in the Indo-Pacific, the battalion traces its lineage to the Army's modular transformation era, evolving from a Brigade Support Battalion into a Light Support Battalion under the Army's restructuring efforts. As part of the “Bronco” Brigade within the 25th Infantry Division, the 325th LSB has adapted its structure and sustainment concepts to meet the demands of archipelagic and jungle operations, emphasizing smaller distribution packages, agile base cluster designs, and expeditionary logistics capable of supporting dispersed maneuver forces across restrictive terrain. This episode examines lessons learned from a Light Support Battalion (LSB) executing a DATE-Pacific archipelago rotation at JPMRC, with a strong focus on sustainment command-and-control, base cluster design, and staff proficiency under high turnover. A central theme is the deliberate investment in MDMP repetitions prior to deployment—conducting multiple internal reps despite 80% personnel turnover—to build shared understanding and accelerate staff performance in the box. Leaders discuss the importance of not waiting for a “perfect” higher headquarters order, instead executing concurrent MDMP, publishing early, and refining through FRAGOs to maintain tempo. The battalion's approach to battle tracking—assigning mission numbers to both forecasted and unforecasted sustainment requirements—allowed the staff to regain control of chaotic demand signals and manage flash taskings without losing visibility. Additionally, the LSB experimented with splitting its staff between tactical and main command posts to preserve survivability while maintaining continuity in day/night operations, accepting friction in order to train to the harder standard. The discussion also highlights the sustainment realities of operating in a Pacific archipelago environment, where terrain, vegetation, and dispersed maneuver elements require smaller, more agile distribution packages. Leaders describe efforts to break bulk commodities down earlier in the sustainment chain, leverage smaller platforms, experiment with caches, and refine fuel and water distribution concepts to better support infantry formations operating at slower movement rates in restrictive terrain. Integration with the Division Sustainment Brigade under the new R-struct proved beneficial, particularly through synchronized battle rhythms and shared intelligence and communications awareness, while maintaining strong habitual relationships with maneuver battalions and their Combat Logistics Companies (CLCs). The overarching takeaway is that success in this environment required disciplined MDMP, flexible sustainment packaging, protected staff development, and a willingness to adapt systems and processes in real time to preserve tempo and survivability in LSCO.

When the musician Luís Sanz showed up for a mystery recording session last year, he didn't know that he'd be playing a cuatro solo for “Lo que le paso a Hawaii,” a lament about the dangers of statehood. Benito's instruction was simple yet heart-wrenching: “play the cuatro as though it's bleeding out.” In this episode, cuatristas show us that the cuatro is more than a musical instrument: it's the soundtrack to the Puerto Rican experience. We follow the cuatro as it travels all over the world with the diaspora, as it fights against displacement, and as it adapts to a new global spotlight.Can't wait for the next episode?

Cuando el cuatrista Luis Sanz se presentó en un estudio para una grabación misteriosa, no imaginó que terminaría tocando un solo de cuatro en “Lo que le pasó a Hawaii”, la canción de Bad Bunny que habla sobre los peligros de la estadidad. Las instrucciones de Benito fueron simples, pero dolorosas: “toca el cuatro como si se estuviera desangrando”.En este episodio, varios cuatristas demuestran por qué, para los boricuas, el cuatro es más que un instrumento, y viajamos junto al cuatro mientras acompaña a la diáspora, lucha contra el desplazamiento y se acostumbra a ser una estrella mundial.Can't wait for the next episode?

The salient point of this morning's briefing centers on the imminent weather developments affecting various regions across the United States. A significant wintry mix is forecasted for parts of the Northeast, accompanied by accumulating snow from late today into early Wednesday. Concurrently, California is poised to experience a modest atmospheric river, resulting in periods of rain at lower elevations and snowfall at higher altitudes. The ongoing volcanic activity in Hawaii remains a subject of interest, as Kilauea's summit inflation suggests a potential eruption window later this week, although no new lava has emerged. In Texas, wildfire activity has intensified, prompting officials to request public caution in affected areas. We will continue to monitor these evolving situations and provide timely updates.Takeaways:* The National Weather Service has issued warnings regarding a wintry mix and accumulating snow in the Northeast.* California is preparing for a modest atmospheric river bringing rain and high elevation snow this week.* Hawaii's Kilauea volcano remains paused, but scientists predict a potential eruption later this week.* Texas is currently experiencing increased wildfire activity, prompting officials to request public caution in affected areas.* Winter weather advisories are in effect for upstate New York, indicating expected snow and hazardous conditions.* Overall, there have been no significant weather updates or damaging events reported in the other states.Sources[NWS Western Region overview | https://www.weather.gov/wrh][California-Nevada River Forecast Center — Daily Briefing/Guidance | https://www.cnrfc.noaa.gov/][USGS HVO — Kīlauea Volcano Updates (updated within 24h) | https://www.usgs.gov/volcanoes/kilauea/volcano-updates][NWS Boston/Norton point & discussion (example Boston) | https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=42.35896682739258&lon=-71.06539916992188][NWS Boston/Norton — Weather Story | https://www.weather.gov/box/weatherstory][NWS Albany Area Forecast Discussion/advisories | https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?issuedby=ALY&product=AFD&site=ALY][NWS point forecast example — Poughkeepsie (wintry mix tonight) | https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=41.7&lon=-73.93][KVII (Amarillo) — “Wildhorse” grass fire | https://abc7amarillo.com/news/local/crews-battling-grassfire-south-of-mlk-memorial-park-texas-am-forest-service-hughes-street-lanake-amarillo-amarillo-fire-department-fire-weather-warning][MySA — Hill Country 175-acre brush fire | https://www.mysanantonio.com/news/hill-country/article/brush-fire-blanco-gillespie-county-21342506.php][Texas A&M Forest Service — Current Wildfire Status | https://tfsweb.tamu.edu/wildfire-and-other-disasters/current-wildfire-status/ This is a public episode.

In this installment of Nomads at the Frontier, Data Center Frontier Editor-in-Chief Matt Vincent checks in with Nomad Futurist founders Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence for on-the-ground reflections from PTC 2026 in Hawaii, and a clear signal that the digital infrastructure market is shifting from hype to delivery. Mahmood says PTC 2026 reaffirmed the move toward integrated digital infrastructure, with attendance continuing to grow and conversations increasingly translating into real progress. But the defining theme across AI, investment, and deployments was power. As Koblence puts it, “all of those questions are power”—and unlike prior years, the tone has moved from speculative site talk to “show me the money, show me the power,” with real timelines and secured capacity. The episode digs into the industry's evolving stance on behind-the-meter generation, which is increasingly treated as the most viable medium-term path to getting online as grid bureaucracy and interconnection delays become the “long pole in the tent.” The discussion also tackles the sustainability tension in that shift: why the industry often kicks the can down the road, what alternative options (fuel cells, hydrogen) may offer, and why nuclear timelines don't solve the near-term gap. Mahmood and Koblence also emphasize that the buildout isn't just a power story; it's a people and community story. Workforce shortages remain structural and long-lived, and community acceptance is now central to the industry's “license to build.” Nomad Futurist's mission, they argue, is becoming a bridge between digital infrastructure and the public, demystifying what the industry is, why it matters, and how the next generation can enter it. Finally, the conversation pressures-tests the AI boom: Mahmood predicts the “mega-scale AI factory” bubble will burst within three to five years, with growth shifting toward inferencing closer to users, but he still expects the sector to normalize into sustained double-digit expansion. And on Nvidia's roadmap, both founders call for realism: megawatt racks may be coming, but as Koblence notes, “there are zero facilities” today that can support a 1–1.5 MW rack at scale.

An unreal weekend at the Agoge Brotherhood Retreat in Hawaii - I wanted to give you a quick tour of the property we stayed at.This place was the perfect setup for everything we did over the weekend — a massive main house, private cabins for the guys, a big communal space for meals and classes, ocean views, and the full recovery setup with the cold plunge and sweat tent. It was the perfect environment to unplug, reset, and focus on what actually matters.
