Text Our Show HostsTonight, we're talking about Coastal living. For many, it's the dream—warm breezes, ocean views, sand between your toes. But for those of us who walk the path of preparedness, we know better. That dream can turn into a nightmare in a matter of minutes. Because behind every beachfront paradise, there's a ticking time bomb. Tsunamis, hurricanes, storm surges, liquefaction, floods, saltwater intrusion… this is Mother Nature, untamed. One moment you're enjoying the sunrise, the next, you're running for your life with nothing but the clothes you're wearing. It's not a matter of If… It's a matter of When.You want to live by the sea? Fine. Great. What a way to live. But know this. The ocean never negotiates. It doesn't care about your insurance policy, your beachfront view, or your naïve sense of permanence. It's an ever-changing volatile environment, and when it decides to move, it destroys.And it's not just tsunamis born from distant quakes. Coastal dwellers live under the constant threat of rising seas, crumbling cliffs, superstorms, and regional disasters tailor-made to rip your life wide open, in as little as a heartbeat.So, ask yourself: Are you really prepared?

It came up this week as discussions drag on about the new ships that BC Ferries has ordered from a shipyard in China. So on this week's episode: what would it take to build a bridge or tunnel?

We're heading to Christchurch, and the Cashmere Club, where the Mainland Big Band will be performing.
Ready for some brand new, ethereal, emotional, multi-layered music that makes you feel like you're taking a long drive up the coast?? Well then you'll love Windser. Join us as we dive in to the full catalog, including the typical dive in to the early inspo growing up in Santa Cruz, CA, how he wanted to play like Hendrix and was surprised to become the lead singer, a flip to NYC where he started Mainland, and the flip back to CA but where that band comes to an end, leaving him feeling lost. Only to find himself writing introspective and deeply personal music under the moniker WIndser that immediately resonates with listeners.Then a fateful hook delivered by his mentor had him singing "Next Year's Gonna Be Better Than This Year" at the top of his lungs, and it proved to be quite prescient. And what a story it is to share!We'll share songs of his like "Shut Up and Kiss Me", "Abandon" and "TV", and WIndser will perform live on the broadcast. Don't miss it!Text us your thoughts on this episode, and who should be OUR #NextFavBand...As always, our hope is to bring you "your next favorite band".

From there, Jon branched HI*Sessions into a popular podcast featuring that same top talent and expanding to interview those in music, wellness, art and everything in between.Now hosted by Jon, Devon and Kyle, this trio has got the chemistry, the questions and the formula for HI*Sessions down to a science and ALA is honored to be a guest!This week, the tables turn and Mina (It's me, Hi!) is interviewed by the trio about her music journey and Artists Loving Artists. We get into discussions about the music and the scene on Hawai'i vs. Mainland , discuss how to keep up in an Artistic space, go down memory lane with some of our first concert experiences and get into a mini-round of ALA with Jon, Kyle and Devon's picks!Stay tuned...I have a sneaking suspicion that this won't be the last time we hear from the fellas on ALA... :)Thank you all for sticking around and stay tuned for a new era of ALA dropping oh so soon - Be sure to Follow and Subscribe and Check out HI*Sessions Music Performances and Podcast on Youtube and where ever you listen to podcasts!Have a great week and Mahalo to Jon, Devon and Kyle!

An Auckland cafe owner said a significant jump in the cost of butter could force her to raise her prices, in a market where food businesses seem to be going under every week. Dairy giant Fonterra has written to wholesale clients saying from this week the price of its butter blocks are going up about twelve percent. Its Anchor and Mainland spreads are going up by the same amount, as is bulk butter. Rebecca Dalli-essi owns Onehunga coffee shop and bakery Lot Nineteen, she spoke to Lisa Owen.
