UPCOMING SHOWS (FOR HAWAI‘I VIEWERS ONLY):
July 6: “Tahiti – Poisson Cru.” It started because they said it couldn’t be done. Polynesians navigated their world on canoes following the stars. Modern seafarers proved it was true. Meet a crewmember on the Hōkūle‘a worldwide voyage traversing the planet with a stop at his ancestral home.
July 13: “California – Pipi Kaula.” At one time, the Hawaiian cowboys were considered some of the best cowboys in the world. They also made the most tender beef jerky called pipi kaula.
