Pumpkin is still playing hooky from the lounge, but Sunshine finds another co-host for the week and manages to have a good time. Starshine rejoins us in the Zen Tiki Lounge for a tart cocktail and an engaging conversation about gay marriage, party planning and things to do in Las Vegas. We end the show with a request to our fans, tell us your favorite ZTL drink or story for our upcoming 100th show. We can’t wait. Mahalo.

Where in the world is Pumpkin? Probably somewhere in Maine, maybe Boston, but who knows for sure. Pumpkin is on another one of her long getaways but just before she left we recorded a quickie of a show for you. This episode is our first podcast dedicated to great tiki and surf rock music. A little exotic, a little thematic but certainly great for cocktails or a quick get together. Artists include the Bikini Beachcombers, the Aquamarines, The Island Groove Supper Club, Ken Emmerson and the Whoadads just to name a few. We couldn’t help throwing in a little shenanigans here and there just to keep you entertained. Enjoy the tunes and we will be back next week.

Our listener submitted drink this week is the Pan Galactic Gargleblaster from none other than the Geoff Stein Project. Sunshine and Pumpkin would like to tell you that this drink is simply wonderful, but only our listeners still attending frat parties will agree with that. Not to say we don’t love trying new things but a ton of booze in a cup with some sugar doesn’t necessarily make a great time. Needless to say it got our buzz going and that got our show on. Pumpkin shares her longing for a trip to the Glen Ivy day spa for a nice butt rub and also brings a little item in the lounge for some show and tell. Sunshine has a story about the horrors of having AT&T for your dreaded phone service. On the tiki side of things we also give some great tips on how to put a little tiki into any national holiday including the 4th of July. Also good for memorial day, labor day etc. Next week we bring you another listener drink, the much mentioned Kungaloosh. Listen often, drink when you can and tell a friend.
