In this episode of the Ka Pewa Podcast, host Kanoa Leahey sits down with U.S. Senator Brian Schatz for an in-depth conversation about the challenges and opportunities shaping Hawai‘i’s future.

Senator Schatz shares candid reflections on the evolution of political leadership in Washington, the growing polarization fueled by social media, and the urgent need to rethink how we approach housing, sustainability, and progress in the islands.

This is more than politics—it’s about values, resilience, and ensuring that Hawai‘i remains home for generations to come.
