Next month, Nobody Knows Your Story hits the two-year mark. From pretty much the moment I started this podcast, I’ve been asked when I was going to talk more about why Hawaii is such a big part of my story.
This episode is me talking about why I feel the way I do about all things Hawaiian. If you’ve been a listener of this podcast, you know that my story will include some mele, (music) from some of my favorite Hawaiian artists.
As I get asked from time to time about who does a particular song, I’m listing the songs contained in this podcast at the bottom of my episode notes.
In my 2017 memoir, Nobody Knows, They Just Want You to Think They Do; I talk a bit about Hawaii. In my updated 2019 edition, I include an entire “bonus” chapter related to Hawaii. This bonus chapter, “Everything You Wanted to Know About Hawaii and Then Some” isn’t so much about my feelings related to Hawaii, but more of a history lesson. I do however take a bit of my Hawaii story from the pages of my book.
Songs Included in this Episode:
Highway In the Sun by Cecilio & Kapono
Rhythm of the Ocean (Live version) by the Hawaiian Style Band
Ka Uluwehi O Ke Kai by Hapa
E Komo Mai by the Barefoot Natives
