“Come to the edge.”

And he pushed them.
And they flew.

Where to send questions in advance? For instance: RE SB933 – Do we know (or when might we know) who the Fab 4 dishing out the $50M are or will be? I should be online…

Well, I guess the answer is ‘I don’t know’… Following the show, I would wish this adds fodder (additional brief?) using this most recent example, to the Acasio suit! You two on this show remind me of Robert Reich and his younger cohort Heather on Saturday morning ‘Coffee Klatch’.. 🤗 Good going!

Mahalo Rob for the feedback. We are still navigating our way through the video podcast environment…but it feels good…like we are on track. You seem to agree? So I think we are going to keep doing it…try to increase frequency to once per week…improve the “production” aspects…including encouraging and accepting questions in advance…and maybe continue having “special guests” and focusing on different issues and challenges across the islands…in addition to basic policy and politics education and “heads up” action alerts. Your thoughts? Do you think we are on the right track and should continue?
