Megann is one of the amazing singers we know. We talk about what to do when you can’t cheehoo at the Bruno Mars concert, her hilarious take on WWE, watching movies with her mom, dogs at Kahala Mall, dealing with imposter syndrome & following your dreams.

Michael is a DP. We talk about raccoons eating his steak, the Mid-Pac theater dept in the early 90s, being Michelle Pfeiffer in Dangerous Minds, working on Californication with David Duchovny, and moving back to Hawaii and trying to figure stuff out.

Check out some of Michael’s work on his website: http://michaelcruickshankdp.com/

And Happy Gotcha Day to our co-host, Dr. Emmett Bean! Here he is on the night we adopted him and today:

Chad is a coach, teacher, 6x Hawaii’s fastest human, and one of Nolan’s (and Jamie’s) dearest friends. With guest co-host Brooke Nakamura, we talk about mistakes in competition, heartbreak and self-doubt. Please excuse the noise of swishing ice cubes

(PARENT WARNING: real Santa talk in here, listen without kids) Dion is an actor. We talk about his Forrest Gump life, his fascination with Presidential cars, being a bubble-wrapped Santa, family history and theater work.

Tears in my eyes again. Nolan talks about his experience having a stepdad and becoming one. I thought I knew all of his thoughts around this subject but there’s stuff in here I never heard before. This episode breaks my heart and fills it to bursting.

This happens a lot…

Jayel is Nolan’s best friend Steven’s wife (Ep 67). We talk about raising 3 boys under age 5, how a visit to the International Marketplace changed her life, and the hilarious stories of how she and Steven became a couple and got engaged.

Big thanks to Steven for entertaining the boys so we could borrow Jayel!!

Johnny is an event planner. We talk about the Hawaii Gay Flag Football League, musical theater, Gay Days Disney, family, his life in LA and his appearance on Ellen, and how that led to him being on birthday cards, calendars and t-shirts nationwide.

W just turned 9. We talk about not listening to your parents, gas, slow hand at jan ken po, child swap, the one thing wrong with Emmett, he rates his big brother and us, and shares some profound words of wisdom.

Austin is 21 and one of our favorite people. He talks about growing up a superfan of Lisa Matsumoto’s theater shows then doing a show in his teens. Then we get into what exactly Jamie should be worried about as her big kid starts middle school. Yikes.

Thomas is visiting from San Diego and joins us with Kyle (Ep 1), his best friend from small kid time. We learn why Thomas smells his food before eating it, what the story is behind Ghost Cat, and how Kyle manages to prank Thomas from across the ocean.
