With just a few months to go before our Tiny Zook

This is the second part of our discussion about retiring our WAIM Unlimited coaching program. We are going to do ONE final enrollment period in a few months and we answer some of your questions about this decision.The questions we answered in this ep:How are we feeling confident when it comes to the money side of this decision? Do we have savings? Other skills we can fall back on? Are we freaking out about this at all?Monthly coaching has been so valuable for our customers, why would we stop doing it?We talk about running a “calm business” does this completely change how calm things will be for us?Why should someone buy WAIM Unlimited during this last chance to purchase? Hope you enjoy hearing us discuss more of the real-time decision-making and thought process to this big shift in our business! ***

After six incredible years, we've decided to retire our flagship program, WAIM Unlimited (after one FINAL upcoming launch). In this episode, we're walking you through exactly why we're making this sizable change. Retiring WAIM Unlimited didn't come from burnout or panic… but from clarity, alignment, and a desire to move into our next chapter with intention. We've been business coaches for 72 months and we're excited to take things in a new direction!Here's what we cover in this ep:What a final enrollment will look like (May/June 2025)The real (and nuanced) reasons we're making this shift—from changing buyer behavior to our own creative evolutionWhat this means for current WAIM members (spoiler: NOT MUCH!)What the next 12 months will look like for us, including our final launch and plans for parental leaveA glimpse at what we're pivoting toward in 2026—and why we're genuinely excited to build from the ground up againThis episode is for anyone who's questioning a long-standing offer or wondering if it's time to let go of something that no longer fits. Your business can grow with you… if you let it.

⏳ Get ready! Our un-boring coaching program enrollment starts Feb 24. Let us help you build a profitable, predictable, and peaceful business in 2025. Learn more at https://wanderingaimfully.com/join ⏳ ***If you can't tell, we are pretty bullish on no-code tools right now and we're excited to share this episode talking about how we built an accountability app/game for our membership community!We walk through why we think creating tools is an alternate marketing path instead of creating content for social media. While everyone is focusing on Reels, TikTok, etc, you could be making tools without the need of a developer OR any design skills at all. The tool we've been using is called Lovable and you don't need to know anything about databases, code, Github, etc. You just need to be able to type in a chat prompt (like GPT).Let us be clear, no-code does NOT mean no effort. Building anything takes patience, time, and a willingness to learn new things and fight through the ups and downs. But, we are so excited with what we've been able to create with our WAIM of Stones accountability app for our WAIM Unlimited members. And we'd much rather spend our time creating long-lasting tools that solve problems as opposed to publishing vertical video content that lasts 24 hours at best.

It's time for a recap of our latest launch of WAIM Unlimited! We share the sales numbers, the lessons learned, and what changes we are/aren't making for the next launch.Spoiler alert: For the second launch in a row, we did NOT hit our low goal

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes ʻIhilani Lasconia and Noenoe K. Silva, to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  Noenoe and ʻIhilani join us to share their passionate insight on the imperative nature of preserving, restoring, and honoring Hawaiian culture and language. Noenoe shares her journey of reclaiming Native Hawaiian history through the lens of ʻOlelo Hawaii, the Hawaiian language. Her work dismantles long-standing myths and stereotypes, revealing the rich intellectual and cultural legacy of the Hawaiian people. ʻIhilani delves into their advocacy for gender justice within the Hawaiian community. As a transnational feminist and doctoral student, ʻIhilani discusses the need to confront heteropatriarchy, drawing from their acclaimed paper, cowritten with Noenoe, that has resonated deeply within their community. Together, Noenoe and ʻIhilani discuss the broader implications of restorative justice, emphasizing the need for communities to reclaim their stories and identities.  Noenoe K. Silva is Kanaka Hawaiʻi from Kailua, Oʻahu. She is a professor of Hawaiian and Indigenous Politics in the Department of Political Science at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, and Cooperating Faculty at the Kawaihuelani Center for Hawaiian Language. She is the author of Aloha Betrayed: Native Hawaiian Resistance to American Colonialism and The Power of the Steel-Tipped Pen: Reconstructing Native Hawaiian Intellectual History, both published by Duke University Press, and numerous journal articles. Her research interests include the reclamation of ʻike Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian knowledge) through the furtherance of understanding of ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi, mele Hawaiʻi, and moʻolelo Hawaiʻi, (Hawaiian language, poetic genres, literature, and history) and the reconstruction of histories of Hawaiʻi through the archives written in ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi by kūpuna Hawaiʻi (ancestors). ʻIhilani Lasconia is a Kanaka ʻŌiwi student, artist, and organizer from Waimānalo, Oʻahu. As an activist and transnational feminist, ‘Ihilani is a member of Af3irm Hawai‘i – a wāhine-led organization centered on ending patriarchal violence through decolonization and anti-imperialism. They are currently a doctoral student at the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa studying political science with the hopes of bringing Indigenous knowledge to the forefront of our education system. In the spring of 2021, ʻIhilani graduated with their Bachelor of Arts in ethnic studies, and in the summer of 2022, they graduated with their master's degree in education. As an artist, ‘Ihilani's work is rooted in the geopolitical landscape of Hawai‘i and their experience being queer and Native in the 21st century. Tune in to learn more about Noenoe and ʻIhilani's perspective on a future where Indigenous knowledge and restorative practices guide the path toward true sovereignty and justice.

Bring on the 5-week content EXTRAVAGANZAAAA! We are getting back in the content creation saddle for the first time in almost 3 years. We've only been creating “nurture” content for the entirety of our WAIM business and that's about to change!This week, we're kicking off a big content creation project for both WAIM and Teachery. Now, Teachery is a bit easier because it's has NEVER had content created for it (not a single article, social post, etc). But, before we just start creating content willy-nilly, we wanted to come up with a framework to make sure we're creating the right content for the right purpose. Is our content just nurturing an existing audience? Or is our content discoverable and helping us grow our audience? Enter our… Content Salad MATRIX. We cover the two different formats of content (Long and Short) and the two different types of content (Find and Nurture). From there, we share our plan for the next 5 weeks and what type of content goes where.We'll fully acknowledge there is a lot to unpack in this episode and that we are embarking on a big content project, but hey, wouldn't it be boring if we didn't swing for the fences a bit??Hope you enjoy it!***⚙️ Give Teachery a try today for free!

In this episode of the podcast, I dive into the unforgettable spots in Hawaii that make the islands a unique paradise to live on. From personal anecdotes to expert insights, we explore the landscapes and experiences that have left a lasting impression on residents and travelers alike. Join us as we journey through the beauty and diversity of Hawaii. This podcast is your guide to understanding why these spots are etched in the memories of those who experience them and make it so I never tire of living here. East Shore to Windward side Venturing just 15 miles east of Honolulu leads to the serene beginning of Oahu's Windward Coast, stretching to Kahana Bay. Along this picturesque shoreline, abundant trails, beaches, lava tubes, and surf breaks await exploration, offering endless opportunities for hiking and beachcombing. Families often enjoy the paved Makapuʻu Point Lighthouse Trail, while seasoned surfers tackle the challenging waves of Makapuʻu Beach and Sandy Beach.Sherwoods Beach in Waimānalo holds a special place in my heart. Its soft sands, gentle waves, and stunning backdrop of the Ko'olau mountains make it a beloved spot for family outings. After a day by the sea, the journey home is sprinkled with local delights like shave ice, lau lau, and malasadas, adding a flavorful touch to the experience.Further along Windward Oahu, Kailua Beach and Lanikai Beach beckon windsurfers and kayakers with their pristine beauty. Kualoa Ranch, a vast 4,000-acre reserve, offers thrilling adventures such as zip lining and horseback riding, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the rich 'āina (land) heritage. And tucked away like a hidden treasure, Sherwood Beach enchants with its gentle waves and panoramic views of the majestic Ko'olau mountains. Upcountry Maui Every time I head to Maui one of my first treks is Upcountry and a visit to Haleakalā National Park. Spanning over 30,000 acres, the park is dominated by a dormant volcano, occupying 75 percent of Maui and soaring to 10,023 feet. Haleakalā is a sanctuary for numerous endangered and indigenous species, its name translating to "House of the Sun" in Hawaiian. Locals revere it as a sacred site where ancient high priests sought wisdom through meditation. Exploring Upcountry Maui, I suggest visiting the Saturday Upcountry Farmers Market in Makawao. Here, you'll discover an array of locally sourced delights, from tropical fruits to artisanal goods and fresh blooms. We always take a trip to Ali'i Kula Lavender Farm, where we stock up on Lavender soap, lotion, and sanitizer and always find something new to bring back to Honolulu that we can't find here. We Podcast About Hawaii Because We Love Hawaii Get Help Planning Your Trip Kauai South Shore The less developed island of Kauai is nicknamed the "Garden Island." Home to one of the wettest spots on Earth, Mount Waialeale, this destination receives a good amount of rain. But the South Shore is a slightly drier escape. This sunny swath of Kauai is popular among snorkelers, swimmers, and Poipu Beach resort guests. For sure, the South Shore has some of the best sunsets. Baby Beach, is I think one of the best places to see it, This is a protected cove just west of Poipu Beach, where you'll find "calm, ankle-deep waters, perfect for families with babies — hence the name — and small children." Also, a place known as Sunset Wall, a local favorite spot at Koloa Landing, is just down the road from Ko'a Kea Resort. Also, I love the Sunsets from Salt Pond Beach Park, where a protected lagoon with clear water offers a serene sunset experience. Hamakua Coast - Hawaii Island I love this drive so much that I can't wait to return to it every time I am on the Big Island. It starts with the Pepe'ekeo Scenic Drive, conveniently nestled just a short drive north of Hilo on Highway 19, offering a delightful escape into the essence of old Hawai'i.

This week, we share a bit of a roadblock we're running into while focusing more on our online course software Teachery. And it's not just one roadblock, it's multiple, very technical, confusing, and difficult roadblocks

We had the pleasure of joining our friend, and frequent guest, Matt Carlson on the podcast portion of his new project, ⁠What Am I Making⁠, back on March 27, 2023. Matt is a talented musician and songwriter from East Lansing, Michigan, whom Barry met as part of an online community created by Pete Dominick, the host of the ⁠Stand Up With Pete Dominick⁠ podcast. During one of their weekly hangouts, Matt shared the name of his latest band, ⁠Harborcoat⁠. Barry caught the R.E.M. connection, which led to a ⁠Pops on Hops episode⁠ to discuss the album ⁠Joy is Elusive⁠. The outtakes alone from that conversation also led to a ⁠Pops on Hops bonus episode⁠ to discuss Matt's Top Five R.E.M. albums. Matt has also contributed songs to our Christmas bonus episodes in both ⁠2021⁠ and ⁠2022⁠. So, obviously, when Matt asked Abigail and Barry to chat about the Pops on Hops podcast, they jumped at the chance! It is a fabulous discussion of the origin story of the Pops on Hops podcast! If you want to check out other episodes of the What Am I Making podcast, here are a few of our favorites! ⁠WAIM #044 - Kevin Alexander's Ten Best Albums Of 2023⁠ ⁠WAIM #031 - Matty C & Rockin' The Suburbs - Live at The Lost Rhino⁠ ⁠What Am I Making #016 - Kevin and Scott Robertson of The Vapour Trails⁠ Up next… The Same Old Blood Rush with a New Touch by Cute Is What We Aim For.

A Hawke's Bay iwi leader has blocked vehicles from a local beach, placing limestone boulders over access points.  Debate's been rife in the community for months over whether four-wheel drive vehicles should be allowed on popular Waimārama Beach, east of Hastings.  Ngati Kahungunu leader Bayden Barber told Mike Hosking that he's had to take the matter into his own hands.  He says it's been a long-standing issue, with the vehicles posing a major safety risk to beachgoers, especially children.  The Hastings District Council is currently seeking feedback in regard to vehicles on the beach.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week we are breaking down our affiliate program for our main offer (WAIM Unlimited). Just a few years ago we weren't interested in “affiliate marketing” at all. We share those initial misconceptions and how our mindset shifted in a different direction, with the help of our paying customers who were asking if they could promote WAIM to their friends and subscribers.Nearly 70% of our new WAIM customers in the past 3 years are from our existing customers (affiliates) and we love this for multiple reasons: Not only because it keeps us from having to spend money on marketing and advertising, but because we know our members are only going to attract people who share our similar values.Some business owners might hear that we've paid our affiliates $166,000 and think that's money that could've gone into our pockets, but we see it as a great way to re-invest in our members and thank them for their efforts!We hope this chat about affiliate marketing can give you some concrete ideas on if setting up affiliates is right for your business.

"The most significant weather event this century." That's the way Prime Minister Chris Hipkins has described the impact of ex-tropical cyclone Gabrielle. Communication and physical access to many communities, particularly in Hawke's Bay and Tairawhiti, remain difficult, with power outages adding to the strain. Hipkins said he is particularly concerned about Wairoa, where the Wairoa River has burst its banks, inundating 10-15 percent of the town which is home to around half of the town's 8000 population.  Communication was only partly restored late last night through the use of a Star Link terminal. Hawke's Bay Civil Defence said Wairoa has only one day's worth of food, and enough drinking water for two days. They have made a request to NEMA for enough food and water to supply the district for seven days. Travel between Napier and Hastings is not possible. SH2 is out due to flooding, with the Ngaruroro River Bridge closed due to flooding. SH51 is also closed due to severe weather conditions".  Further north, Wairoa is cut off as State Highway 2 Gisborne to Ōpōtiki and Napier to Gisborne is closed as is State Highway 35 Gisborne to Hicks Bay A Tokomaru Bay business owner said the highway through Tairāwhiti has sustained incredible damage.  Peter Cunningham of Highway 35 Cafe spent last night sheltering at an uphill marae along with most of the town's population.  He said Tokomaru Bay has been flooded - but Uawa/Tolaga Bay appears to be the worst-affected.  Gisborne residents are being asked to urgently conserve water after a break in the city's main supply, somewhere between the dams and the treatment plant.   The Government estimates roughly 2500 people have been displaced by Cyclone Gabrielle so far. This includes 1000 people in the Far North, 400 households in Auckland, 93 in Bay of Plenty, 75 in Waikato and roughly 1000 people in Hawke's Bay.  But with communication sparse, officials have struggled to get an idea of the damage caused throughout the country. Northland Civil Defence said hundreds of people were evacuated in Dargaville yesterday after the Awakino River burst its banks.   Further south, hundreds of people were rescued from raging flood waters in Hawke's Bay after rivers burst their banks. Hawkes Bay civil defence reported late last night that a woman in Putorino had died after a bank collapsed onto her home. Police visited the property following a missing person's report and undertook rescue efforts but were unsuccessful. And a body was found on the shore in Bay View, Napier shortly before eight-PM last night. It is not yet known if the death is connected to the flooding. Kevin McCormack spent most of the day on his roof with his wife and two neighbours after the Tutaekuri River in Napier burst its banks. In Muriwai, near Auckland, Fire and Emergency will resume the search today for the volunteer firefighter missing in a landslide. Dave van Zwananberg is a vet at Vets North in Kumeu. He is trapped in the wreckage of a house that collapsed. A person is in a critical condition in hospital after being hit by a a falling tree fell in a Kohimarama playground yesterday afternoon. AT's Executive General Manager of Safety, Stacey Van Der Putten said: "Aucklanders should be prepared for delays and disruption to travel today as flood damage, sea conditions, power outages and fallen trees continue to affect our roads and public transport network." Work is well underway to assess and repair damaged roads, with over 500 crew members working across Auckland. While dozens of roads have been reopened, there are currently more than 100 roads closed or partially closed. Many thousands of people still don't have power this morning and face extended outages. Power outages have been reported for 60,000 customers across Hastings, Havelock North, Napier, north along east coast to Tūtira and south to Waimārama. It is expected to take some time before power is fully restored across the region. At its peak earlier yesterday, across the country close to 225,000 people were without power, authorities said.

Manao Chocolate is one of the top few largest craft bean to bar chocolate makers in the US today.  It was founded in 2010 by Dylan Butterbaugh, who was born and raised in Hawai‘i, as a way to build a local business from an environmentally sustainable tree crop and support supply chain transparency. Tamara Butterbaugh, who owns Manoa Chocolate along with Dylan, is also a chocolate sommelier. And while she's been building out an export market for chocolate, she is also building out the local supply chain for ‘ulu, or breadfruit. ‘Ulu is what is called a canoe crop: the crops that the original Hawai‘ians brought with them to the islands nearly 2,000 years ago. The crop plays an important role in Hawai‘ian traditional culture and was a valued staple crop until around the time of statehood in 1959, when American processed foods began to dominate the scene.  Bringing it back now closes a circle on a wheel that was broken by the twentieth century agricultural industrialization of Hawai‘i. In addition, ‘ulu is one of the only staple food crops to grow on trees; it helps mitigate climate change, and ensures a long term abundance and prosperity in the local food supply chain. The beautiful ‘ulu tree helps to sequester carbon, it doesn't need soil tilling or weed control, and it is heat and drought tolerant. One tree can live for 50 to 100 years or more and produce hundreds of pounds of fruit per year.  Tamara lives in Waimānalo where she maintains a 1-acre diversified farm with loʻi kalo (taro), maiʻa (banana), ʻulu (breadfruit), niu (coconut), and kokoleka (cacao)For more info: Hawaii Ulu Cooperative – Farmer-owned, ʻāina grown.

The famous Steve Jobs quote goes something like this: “We're here to put a dent in the universe. Why else even be here.” And while that's inspiring for some, it's not the only perspective in life. Also, we can think of a million other reasons to exist as a human that don't require trying to dent the universe.In this episode, we want to deconstruct some of these big aspirational quotes that get shared constantly around social media. There's a lot of ego at play in the “dream big” messaging and the constant striving for trying to impact millions of people.If you're anything like us, and if you listen to this podcast we think you are

For all our multi-passionate business owners out there, this episode is FOR YOU. We hope our discussion this week helps you in one of two ways:1. Either you've been wanting to stay more generalized and multi-passionate, but it hasn't been working for you and this can give you permission to go more narrow OR...2. You're still really committed to being a generalist (like we are with WAIM!) and this can help shift your expectations in terms of how to make that happen.We believe it IS still possible to be less niche with your biz, but the key has been and always will be: You need an audience, and specifically, you need an email list.There are five key elements we're sharing this week to help you succeed if you don't want to niche way down and you want to serve a bigger, broader topic.Links we said we'd share with you...

Though now living in beautiful Waimānalo, Kawika grew up in the small town of Kane`ohe on the windward side of O`ahu. One cannot think about the windward side without images of the breathtaking Ko`olau mountain range, lush, green valleys and the magnificent ocean views. Born to Samuel (Uncle Sam) and Josephine (Aunty Jo) Kahiapo, Kawika is the 5th of 6 children. Kawika's interest in music began at an early age, when, inspired by his father, he spent many hours alone in his room strumming along. Some of his fondest memories are of their "garage" jam sessions, when "Pops" Gabby Pahinui would show up with his guitar and bottle of vodka. This is what inspired Kawika's passion for ki ho`alu (slack-key guitar). Today, Kawika continues to perpetuate the art of ki ho`alu in his sound recordings and annually at Slack Key Festivals. He was honored as the 2007 Na Hoku Hanohano Slack Key Artist of the year. At the age of 17, Kawika entered the professional music scene, joining Chucky Boy Chock and O`ahu Brand, then soon thereafter found himself on stage as a member of Palani Vaughan's Kings Own. He married his high school sweetheart, Laurie Yano, and they have been blessed with five children and three beautiful grandchildren. Over the years, Kawika has contributed his musical talent to some 108+ recording projects and has collaborated or performed with artists such as Jack Johnson, Kaukahi, Palani Vaughan, Melveen Leed, Brother Noland, Leon and Malia, Kawehi Lindsey, Jesse Rivera, Kapena, Pierre Grill, Na Leo Pilimehana, Kelly Boy Delima, Del Beazley, Native Hawaiian Band ,Cyri Pahinui, Amy Gilliom, Dennis Kamakahi, Daniel Ho, Paula Fuga, Martin Pahinui, Rene Paulo, and Walt Keale. Besides being a recording artist and an ordained minister, Kawika is also on the Kokua Hawai'i Foundation board, a non-profit organization that supports environmental education in the schools and communities of Hawai'i. This is the reason many of you may have seen Kawika emceeing the Kokua Hawai'i Festivals and jumping on stage with Jack Johnson at some point during the concert. This is one of the ways Kawika is able to be a blessing to the community and our 'aina. It's A Hawaii Thing Productions. Quality content for the Hawaii Enthusiast and traveler.

Just because you've done something in the past with your business doesn't mean it has to be a hard and fast “rule” forever. We should embrace working less hours, doing fewer things, and striving for enough instead of more.This week, we shared a bunch of thoughts around having to be consistent or over-stuffing our products and services with too many things, and instead, to actually talk to our customers and find what's valuable to THEM.If you've been feeling disillusioned with social media, you are not alone. We are on a 6-month break from using Instagram for our WAIM biz and it's felt soooo freeing to us. We want you to feel that freedom as well by taking a good, hard look at WHY you use these platforms and WHAT tangible data you can get that tells you they are necessary (we do understand for some folks, social media isn't evil and is very helpful).Hope you enjoyed our travel stories from Ballybunion, Ireland!

In November, a huge underground naval fuel storage facility at Red Hill near Honolulu burst, leaking 14,000 gallons of jet fuel, contaminating the water supply, poisoning scores of people and driving thousands of Hawaiian families from their homes.The state's attorney general, David Day, has alleged that the military has essentially no control over the safety of the enormous depot, which holds 250 million gallons of fuel. Day remarked that the state had a “ticking time bomb” on its hands, and that further contamination of its precious water supply was all but inevitable. The tanks sit just feet above the island's largest aquifer.And this incident is merely the latest in a long list showing the American empire's callous disregard for the civilian population of Hawaii, as it puts military needs before the people or the environment. Joining Lowkey today are two Hawaiian activists, Ihilani Lasconia and Daniel Kauwila Mahi. Ihilani is an artist, singer and organizer from Waimānalo; Daniel is a musician, rapper and student from Honolulu.The two place the latest disaster in the context of centuries of American imperialism, which sees Hawaii as a strategic location for control over the Pacific. The United States overthrew the Hawaiian monarchy in 1893 and formally annexed the islands in 1898. From there, it became a linchpin in the U.S. expansion across the Pacific and the conquest of the Philippines, Guam and other territories, serving as an important military launchpad.There are 11 military bases on Oahu alone, including the enormous Pearl Harbor, the headquarters of the U.S. Pacific Command. So militarized have the islands become that around one in ten of all Hawaii residents are servicemen and -women.“It's not just the guns and the bombs,” Lasconia told Lowkey, noting that the military has even tested depleted uranium shells at its bases, leading to locals developing cancer. “This is just the tip of the iceberg,” of being at ground zero for the American war machine, she added.The deep-seated racism towards the indigenous population is something that native Hawaiians can feel every day. Lasconia noted that this latest contamination was far from an isolated incident. “Fuel tanks have been leaking for decades now,” she said; “But [it is] because [this time] it affected predominantly white people on the U.S. base that they are doing something about it.” Kauwila Mahi noted that the increased critical coverage of the incident is also prompted by the negative consequences it has for the state's two other sectors of power: the tourism and real estate industries, which do not wish to see further environmental degradation. He sees this as an opportunity to use the Red Hill disaster as a wedge issue to strike back at the excessive militarism on display throughout the islands.Ihilani and Daniel are among a new generation of leaders challenging the empire, although they see themselves as part of a long tradition. “Hawaiians have always opposed militarization throughout Hawaii,” Lasconia said. However, she expects no help from local elected officials, who do not have the power to speak out against the military for fear of reprisals. “It's not a government; it's not a democracy; it's essentially a mafia state run by terrorists who don't hurt just Hawaii but indigenous peoples across the world,” she told Lowkey.Support the show (https://www.patreon.com/MintPressNews)

Hawaiʻi and Borikén are connected in struggle. They have been for some time. So I wanted to take a moment with my sisters across the world, to share and to hold space on issues that only we understand fully. It is a rare moment in American Society when you can look someone in the eye and they understand the type of oppression you have been subjected to, the type where demanding freedom is labeled "radical." Spiritually, physically and mentally we have been affected by the policies of ownership of indigenous lands and bodies that Congress continues to normalize and even congratulate themselves on. They imposed a fiscal control board over Puerto Rico (translated to Rich port) because we are commodities to the United States of America.And this must change. The US cannot continue to dictate the terms of our enslavement. You do not tell those that you oppress, how you will stop oppressing them. THEY tell YOU.In this episode I sit down with two inspiring women, MYKIE & IHILANI, to talk about history and to talk about what real freedom would look like. More importantly, to say aloud to each other and to all of you that we must fight for a future where are free. Books: A Nation Rising by Noelani Goodyear-Kaʻōpua, From A Native Daughter by Haunani-Kay Trask, Fighting the Battle of Double Colonization by Haunani-Kay Trask,  'Native Hawaiian Law: A Treatise' edited by University of Hawaiʻi law professors Melody MacKenzie, Susan Serrano, and Kapua Sproat, Islanders in the Empire: Filipino and Puerto Rican Laborers in Hawaiʻi’ by JoAnna Poblete Instagram accounts to follow: @Kanaeokana @Puuhuluhulu @ProtectMaunakea Bios: Ihilani Lasconia is a Kānaka ʻŌiwi (Native Hawaiian) poet, student, and organizer from Waimānalo Oʻahu. ʻIhilani is currently a senior at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa majoring in Ethnic Studies.

We poured ourselves some adult beverages and explored these topics: When is it appropriate to start listening to Christmas music? What job do we think we'd have if we weren't entrepreneurs? And what unpopular opinions did Caroline have (or not??) during this chat? Hope you enjoy this first non sequitur episode and the roaring fire in the background (hah!)

What's this? What's this? It's Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas! Who's this? It's Daryl Black: improviser, artist, father, superfan. Where's this? The WAIM studio, AKA my office. How's this? I don't know...Apple figured out the technology like 12 years ago to make this stuff accessible and easy to listen to on the go. Why's this? I wish I had an answer for you.I should have just stayed in my lane. Let's dive in.

You know who Bruce Lee is. We all know who Bruce Lee is! But do you KNOW Bruce Lee? His outlook? His philosophies? His Cha-Cha? Well Andy Ransom does, and he is bringing his dulcet tones into the WAIM studio to talk about The Dragon himself. So pour yourself a tea, pull up a beanbag, and get ready to get meditative. Let's dive in.

On this episode of Indigenous Urbanism, we continue our haerenga across the Hawke’s Bay to visit a new five house papakāinga development, on the hills of beautiful Waimārama, which for the Renata whānau has been an opportunity to get back to their tūrangawaewae, and to reconnect with their marae and each other.

Matt Midgette joins me in the WAIM studio and makes history by talking so long that I had to cut it up into two episodes! But that's alright, because what he says is so fascinating I couldn't edit it down to just an hour and some change. So check out Part 1, where we talk about the origins of the band, what they almost called themselves instead, and how the Beach Boys brought Matt and his wife together. Awwwwww! True love, cars, and surfer girls. It's all here. Let's dive in.

Zach Simpson slides into the hot seat to talk to me about Barbershop. He’s got dates! He’s got references! He’s got names and recommendations! We talk about the history of quartets; from it’s roots in African-American culture to the present as a competitive and generational artform. We also talk about our opinions regarding Back to the Future, and that one Simpsons episode starring the “Be-Sharps". How can two people talk about so much in such a short amount of time? That’s WAIM, baby. Let’s dive in.

At what point does "collection" become "compulsion?" Robby Pigott joins me in the WAIM studio to discuss Snoopy, which is interesting enough; but what if we also started to dissect pop culture and how we use it to create personal identities? Is it less meaningful because someone else created the thing that we use to self-identify? Can an arbitrary choice suddenly become a lifelong obsession? Why didn't Charles Schultz like the name "Peanuts"? All of this and more in this week's episode of What Am I Missing? Let's dive in.

Anthony Smith has been in every episode of WAIM so far, because he wrote the theme music! Now, after 2 months of waiting, he's finally sat down to talk about the music that inspires him. We talk about our ever-evolving definition of what a 'singer-songwriter' is, how it relates to hip-hop, and who to listen to in order to get the best experience. Stick around until the end to hear an original song from Anthony entitled "Hey, Angeline!" (which is also the name of his band. Listen and enjoy!
