"The Weekly Dish" Radio Show Turns 2!

      I know, I know... we're still a baby, but after 100 episodes, I am very thankful for the journey we've traveled on the KAOI airwaves.  It's been so much fun, and also an honor to share with you Maui's incredible stories and individuals.

      Tomorrow (08/10/12) we will celebrate live on the air at 7 a.m. HST with some of our friends and radio  ohana. Oh boy... do we have a lot in store for you live listeners!

      We'll welcome our good friend and Grade-A radio personality, Johnny A, to the studio to help host the celebration, and our very own Paul Janes-Brown graces the studio with his style and wit. Hopefully, we can keep the herd of happy folks in control so that we may deliver a quality radio show as well as party!

      Also, our musical brotha, Kaulana Kanekoa, will bring his 'uk skills and gentle spirit to the studio. We're looking forward to a few live Kanekoa ditties from his band mate Shawn Michael and him. If you don't know this band, shame on you! They make great music that grooves your soul. (Visit http://www.kanekoamusic.com to discover what you've been missing.)

      Rachel G from Body Alive Yoga and Movement Studio and Exotic Eye Tattoo (photo below) will visit the latter part of the broadcast, and we're hoping Megan and the ladies of Wailuku Coffee Company can stop by with some great news from the neighborhood hub.

       Oh, and about every 7 minutes, we'll be giving away some goodies from our local small business 'ohana and beyond. Yay!!

      Giveaways includes great treats from Stella Blues Cafe, Ambrosia Martini Lounge, Three's Bar & Grill, Adoboloco Hot Sauce and more!!  Save 242-7800 on your phone, and wait for our signal. Some callers will have to answer a simple trivia question to receive gifts, so listen closely. (DISCLAIMER: You must live on Maui or at least Hawai'i to win. Sorry, Mainland listeners... )
