Aloha Everyone, Sorry to the delay its been a busy time on Kauai. Balancing the life of a business owner, father, husband, and friend has kept me busy. So got a quick one, its something I've notice as we come back to the new normalcy post covid. As someone who went out of my way to support local business as everyone struggled thru the pandemic i started to notice these business shifting tactics of focusing on tourist over locals, this is not a bad thing or a good thing. Listen in and let shoot the shit on this topic. As always a big mahalo goes out to everyone sharing, giving me feedback, and listening in. if it wasn't for you this would be just me talking and my buddy posting to the either of the net aimlessly.

Aloha Everyone, today lets shoot the shit about elections. I know I know nobody wants to talk politics in this day in age. This is just a remainder to get out and VOTE, elections have consequences. Over the last couple of years we have seen how our politician's have failed us and how they have earned their keep. Most have failed epically but we can let that stop us from going out and voting with our hearts and minds, not with a political party's or affiliation. As always keep smiling and don't forget to not only put a smile on your face but do something to put a smile on the face nearest you.

In this episode were gonna talk about how participation trophies have done more harm than good. Were gonna shoot the shit about from my perspective as an youth swim instructor, a father, and a high school coach. Lets shoot the shit about this, as this as all effected us in one way or another. looking forward from hearing from ya'll.

Aloha Everyone, just a quick take on my agree to disagree. Let's not get so caught up in our own opinions and feelings that it becomes my way or the highway. At the end of the day or in any conversation, we have to remember that we started as friends and or family or coworkers, don't let a discussion or a difference in opinion be the end of that relationship. The world is best severed when you can see it from all angles.
