For a long time now we have toyed with the idea of a live studio audience. This week we really do it. Some of our most loyal listeners stop by our hotel room at Tiki Oasis 10 and join in the shenanigans. You just gotta listen to so you can feel like you were almost there. After a drink or two and some host/hostess prompted questions our audience participates in the fun and we all have a great time. This is one of those shows you just don’t explain in print. Listen, enjoy, relax.

Kalani and Sunshine in the lounge this week. We decided to polish off the rest of the house mixer and the cocktail we made with it was roughly a gallon. This set the mood for some great exotica and plenty of info on the upcoming tiki events around the globe. THEN it hit us. Why can’t people just be OK with other people? We didn’t figure out the answer to that one but we did debate the Prop 8 mystery to some extent. Come on, just mind your own business and let folks be who they are. No one is forcing anyone else to do anything they don’t want to. Insert second cocktail here. And now, Target and Best Buy are up to some shenanigans with recent political contributions to alleged anti-gay organizations. Again, why can’t people just get along? Well, we may have gotten off topic and diverted to a dozen or so tangents but we manage to provide a rant about SAVING THE COCKTAIL PARTY! In this economy we all need a nice libation and some friends to shoot the breeze with. So plan your cocktail party soon. Before the world really does end.

6oz Rum (any kind you like, I prefer half silver and half amber or dark)
Splash of OJ or Pineapple juice, just enough to get things moving around in the blender
Put everything in a good blender and give it a whirl. Serves 2 to 3 depending on the size if your glass.

For the third time in over 5 years, all four hosts are here in the Zen Tiki Lounge. This episode may be a bit loud, reminiscent of a drunken frat party, but still very well worth the listen. Sunshine, Pumpkin, Starshine and Kalani are all here fighting to own the microphone. To get us started we try the newly concocted Sailor Mary cocktail. This punch like drink is bright red and well garnished and will be served at Tiki Oasis for our official room crawl party. Can’t make it to Tiki Oasis or one of the other weekend events this Summer, just stay tuned to this podcast for highlights and shenanigans. Pumpkin is ahead of her game this time and is sharing her list of BS holidays for the month of August. Don’t forget to celebrate national hair pulling day? And, by listener requests, we have added 100% more exotica to the show. The tunes are louder and we play em longer. We will also be ditching Pumpkins usual quote at the end of the show for a song from one of our favorite bands or a classic exotic artist. This week we play out the show with The Exotics and their wonderful tune “Shanghai.” We still have a bit of room for a few more listeners to join us for a live podcast in August if you are attending Tiki Oasis, just send a note to mail@zentikilounge.com to let us know you are interested. Cocktails will be served, 21 and over ONLY.
