Ryan Tucker Jones, History, and 2024–25 OHC Faculty Research Fellow. This interdisciplinary global history integrates the newest, exciting advances in whale science to reinterpret the last 500 years of human-cetacean relations. In the past decades, satellite tagging, drone footage, DNA analysis, and long-term behavioral studies have revealed whale lives in unprecedented detail. The newest cetacean science not only reveals ways that whales experienced this history, but also casts new light on the crucial global stories of colonization, industrialization, and the creation of a modern, interconnected world.
Nestled in the unforgiving Skull Valley, Utah, the ghost town of Iosepa tells an incredible story of perseverance, faith, and resilience. In the late 19th century, a group of Polynesian pioneers left the lush landscapes of Hawai'i to build a new life in the western desert. Against all odds, they thrived, creating a community that once won Utah's award for best-kept town. But by 1917, Iosepa was abandoned. What led to its demise? Why did these settlers leave behind everything they built? And what remains of Iosepa today? Join us on Twisted Tales by Profiling Evil as we uncover the forgotten history of Iosepa, a once-thriving Polynesian Mormon settlement, now lost to time.

Imagine being able to tear through the fabric of reality itself - to quantum leap across the multiverse of possibilities and land precisely in the version of your life where abundance flows like water, where your highest potential has been realized, where the YOU that exists there wakes up every morning in awe of the magic that surrounds them! This is not science fiction, my friends - this is the bleeding edge where ancient wisdom meets quantum physics. The mana force - that primordial energy the Polynesians harnessed for centuries - combined with the reality-bending principles of quantum mechanics that scientists like Max Planck and Niels Bohr unveiled to our astonished minds. What if I told you that the version of you that has already achieved everything you desire is simply vibrating at a different frequency? That your dream life exists RIGHT NOW in a parallel timeline, and all you need is the right technology of consciousness to SHIFT yourself there? The meditation you're about to experience is that technology - a precise protocol combining the energy-generating mana force breath work with visualization that programs your neural pathways, connects to your higher self, activates the reality-selecting plait from Transurfing, and executes the quantum jump that catapults your consciousness into your optimal timeline.

The iconic image of the “perfect” tropical beach is fine white sand, a few coconut palm trees, a gently sloping beach, and unobstructed views of the blue sea. This image came about to a great extent from fascination with Polynesian scenery at the time of World War II. And because of this imagery, beach resorts […]

In this episode, we journey into the vibrational worlds of sound, ancestry, and deep listening with Whaia, a Ngāti Kahungunu woman of Māori descent and First Nations sonic weaver and multi-instrumentalist. Raised between the salt of the Pacific and the red dust of the Australian desert, Whaia's voice carries ancient songlines, blending traditional Māori instruments, crystalline singing bowls, and her original mother tongue, the language of Te Rā, the Sun. We explore her work singing with whales, reclaiming cultural instruments once left silent in museums, and remembering the sacred oceanic highways navigated by her Polynesian ancestors, guided by the stars and whale ancestors. This is a conversation about song as medicine, the voice as ceremony, and reclaiming lineage through sound. We ask: what might the whales be singing to us now? What frequencies are we called to remember in order to heal ourselves and our waters? Stay on after the episode wraps to hear a special feature from Whaia's debut album WHAIA & WATER — the first of a twelve-part series known as her Sacred Sonic Sessions.

What drives us to venture into the unknown—even when there's no finish line or prize at the end? In this episode of Trail Runner Nation, we sit down with author and science journalist Alex Hutchinson to explore the ideas behind his new book, The Explorer's Gene: Why we Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors, and the Blank Spots on the Map. From ancient Polynesian voyages to backyard adventures with his kids, Alex uncovers how the drive to explore is deeply rooted in both our biology and our upbringing. We discuss how exploration shapes personal growth, why uncertainty triggers our motivation, and how everyday choices can satisfy our innate desire for discovery. Make sure you have his award-winning book, Endure: Mind, Body, and the Curiously Elastic Limits of Human Performance, which explores the boundaries of human potential on your reading list.

In this episode of "Chats and Tatts," host Aaron Della Vedova delves into the rich Polynesian history and evolution of tattooing as an art form witth guest Leland Gomez. Leland reflects on his own experience with old-school apprenticeship, sharing insights about the hands-on skills he learned, such as scrubbing tubes and tuning coil machines. They discuss the cultural significance of tattoos across various regions, highlighting how styles are deeply rooted in their respective cultures—from the traditional tattoos of Samoa and Africa to the unique genre of Japanese tattoos.

The Hawaiians have a great marketing secret…and it's not the beaches or the beautiful weather.

We're chatting about how storytelling can transform your emails into must-open messages that resonate, build trust, and feel just like a heart-to-heart with a friend. In this episode you'll hear: The significance of storytelling in Polynesian culture and its application in business. How storytelling can enhance client relationships and community building. The magic behind using emotion and real-life examples to spark action Simple, everyday ways to weave value into your content—without always needing a discount Misconceptions about storytelling in marketing Tips on using personal anecdotes and analogies to create deeper connections How to keep your email audience coming back for more, even when you're not giving away stuff MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

With world-class restaurants and lounges ('Ohana, Kona Cafe, Trader Sam's and more), iconic pools, breathtaking views, a wide range of unique room options (including honeymoon suites and Bora Bora Bungalows), and a rich history at Walt Disney World, Polynesian is a fan-favorite resort. In this episode, we discuss everything you need to know about staying at this deluxe-level resort, share reasons why you might want to stay here, and offer suggestions about how to make the most of your stay. And stay tuned because our next podcast episode will feature more information specifically about Island Tower, the newest addition to this resort and part of the Disney Vacation Club portfolio of hotels.

A waka discovered on Rekohu / Chatham Islands has been described by one expert as the most important discovery in New Zealand, possibly Polynesian archeology.
In the first half, author and researcher Liz Larson discussed the profound impact of eye movement on neurological health and personal transformation. She shared her "Cognitive Movement" modality, which is designed to help individuals reshape their nervous systems through controlled eye movements, accessing memories and emotional patterns for greater personal growth."It's like a backdoor hack," Larson described. She elaborated on how eye movements correlate with mental states, outlining that the eyes not only take in information but also dictate how the brain processes experiences. For instance, looking up can foster inspiration, while gazing down encourages mindfulness of the body.Larson described sneaky strategies for incorporating these techniques into daily life, allowing individuals to execute eye movements discreetly in social situations. "Many people will use that to calm feelings of anxiousness... that will signal the nervous system to down-regulate," she said. According to her, eye movements can energize the brain in preparation for stressful tasks, such as a job interview.Larson cautioned that as individuals age, reduced eye movement can lead to a narrower perspective and hinder cognitive function, making it essential to keep the eyes engaged. Furthermore, Larson explored the intersection of eye movement and paranormal experiences. She claimed that enhancing one's eye movement capabilities could unlock latent visual and psychic abilities, stating, "Many people report being able to see things that are in their vicinity that most of us can't see."She described a remarkable experience at one of her workshops, where the collective energy of participants reportedly led to the appearance of "a portal... this bright blue light looked like static electricity." Larson noted, "It was just this pure, radiating, lovely, conscious energy in the room."------------------In the second half, Gregory Shushan, PhD, discussed near-death experiences (NDEs) and cross-cultural beliefs about the afterlife. He has found notable similarities in how different societies perceive life after death. "The most fascinating aspect is... specifically the way [afterlife] beliefs correspond to near-death experiences," he claimed.Shushan has studied both the Egyptian Book of the Dead and the Tibetan Book of the Dead, and he's concluded these texts describe NDEs. "If you strip away the cultural descriptions, we're left with something that looks very much like a near-death experience," he elaborated. He explained that NDEs typically follow certain patterns. While Western narratives often depict experiences of traveling toward a bright light, other cultures tell stories of walking wild paths leading to the afterlife, a motif prevalent in Polynesian religions.The discussion also delved into shamanic practices, where one enters NDE-like states in order to gain insights or powers. Shushan noted that spiritual healers navigated these realms for transformative experiences. "They could control that and then come back to life, whereas a [real] near-death experience... it's pretty iffy if the person's going to come back or not," he explained.He also addressed contemporary scientific skepticism regarding the afterlife, asserting that ancient cultures often held a more profound understanding of life after death. "In contemporary Western culture, there is a real resistance to anything that has to do with death," he remarked. Shushan proposed that our modern, secular view is potentially limited, reflecting, "If there is an afterlife, it's nothing supernatural or paranormal. I think it's just natural."
