Ya know, the world is full of far to many A holes. We work too many hours. Everything cost too much. And we put up with it all so we can sip rum filled drinks on our weekend. Not so bad. Sunshine and Starshine are in the lounge this week trying to relax and forget about the ills of the world. Did someone say Cocktail? We’re having a gret one. Donga Punch is and oldie but goodie. Aged rum, grapefruit, lime and cinnamon combine to create a simple but tasty libation. Exotic music sets the mood and we’re off. On our past episode we gave listeners the opportunity to pre book their hotel room for Tiki Caliente this May 20-22. Mahalo to those of you who jumped at the chance and we will see you at the event. Click the link for the official website and all the details on music, artists and shenanigans. Sunshine tells folks how to re use their tiki mugs with some creative ideas. A potted plant in what was a mug you never used. The point is RE USE things. Don’t throw everything way, don’t live a disposable life. We also discuss the unrest in Egypt that is igniting uprisings across the middle east. What is it all about? Well, we discuss. But thank goodness for the cocktails. Enjoy the show!

Aloha and welcome to our 200th podcast. We are the dimly lit tiki bar that lives in your head. Our show this week has all four hosts you have come to love and adore, plenty of music and a good measure of the cocktails and shenanigans you have come to expect.

Sunshine unveils the tangerine liquor that he’s been working on for Kalani. Fresh juice, zest, honey and plenty of 151 combine to make a pretty decent citrus concoction. We wish we could say the first cocktail using this liquor were astonishing. But not so much. Back to the bar.

Is it getting hot? Hotter every day. Tiki Caliente is heating this May 20-22 in sunny Palm Springs, CA. Listen to the podcast for details on rooms, music, vendors and more.. Tiki Caliente official site…

Show material this week includes: Starshine and Pumpkin share how they use sex as motivation for husbands/boyfriends. Kalani disagress with this method, preferring plain old suggestion. Sunshine is fascinated by the crazy questions people are asked in interviews. We all take a moment to remember our favorite times here in the Zen Tiki Lounge. After 200 shows we certainly have plenty of memories, hundreds of hours of banter and as many consumed cocktails. This is the good life.

Enjoy the show!

Due to technical difficulties, or perhaps heavy liquid impairment, your hosts toss the show notes out the window and engage in a trainwreck of a bar chat. Theres nothing classy about this weeks episode. In the first third of the show we have two cocktails, one so bad we stop the show and toss it out. Then Kalani makes love to the micorophone for your enjoyment and pleasure. The rest is, well, interesting. And dirty. No kiddies please. Enjoy! Almost forgot, there may be gay anime CGI pirate porn…..maybe.
