- Importance of Sewer Cleanouts and Upkeep (Condo Insider)
Sewer Cleanout, Sewer Maintenance. The host for this show is Raelene Tenno. The guest is Bobby Perkins.
Let's talk Sewer! Why is it important to clean the sewer drains? Gunk or debris accumulate in the drains such as dirt, grease, soap scum, hair, clumped paper (to name a few) or just sediment from the pipes. Wet wipes disposed into the sewer lines are another big headache that have caused blockages and sewer backups into homes, leading to very costly repairs to include sanitizing the area. Sewer maintenance can involve the use of a camera to identify the blockage as it could be tree roots, too. Learn how to properly maintain our sewer drains and most importantly what not to dispose of into the sewer lines.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6ljqy0AFMzlEaxzpk_ydmpePlease visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.28 min - Understanding the Move to Global Autocracy (American Issues Take Two)

Our panel examines the remarkable growth in the rise of autocrats and autocratic governments around the world, including China, Russia, Hungary and so many other places in Latin America, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, as well as the rise of autocratic right wing movements in other countries, and what this means to the United States, to Europe and to the liberal world order.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6mIafeQC2BSFX6GC4mnhEUNPlease visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.43 min - 2022 Highlights and 2023 Hopes (It's Time for Responsible Change)

How Prepared Are we for this Winter. The host for this show is Guillermo Sabatier.
As winter gets into full swing, memory of recent capacity events reminds us how vulnerable we can still be when it comes to electric utilities and energy supplies. The Texas and ERCOT cold weather event still fresh, and given the near miss California experienced, questions abound regarding the energy sector's readiness for cold weather peak demand.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6nwmSAXtd40Kath8s8aCbZoPlease visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.25 min - How History Explains Europe's Move to the Right (History is Here to Help)
What Historical Factors Are Now Reemerging. The host for this show is Jay Fidell. The guests are Manfred Henningsen and Tim Apicella.

Legislative Bills Addressing Bottlenecks. The hosts for this show are Jay Fidell and Tom Yamachika.
Last year’s Legislature approved $600 million to our Department of Hawaiian Home Lands (DHHL) to reduce the monstrous waiting list of Hawaiians waiting for homestead lands. The catch, however, is that DHHL needs to spend the money, or enter into a contract to spend it, by June 30, 2025. Otherwise, the money goes back to the general fund.On December 6, 2022, DHHL published a strategic plan to accomplish this lofty goal. In that plan, it noted that Act 279, SLH 2022, the legislative act appropriating the money, also required the agency to submit to the legislature by December 10th any proposed legislation that the agency considered necessary or desirable.The legislative proposals, although they may be thought of as a wish list, seem to take direct aim at several key items that impede housing development today.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6lmEllOKP493URXssFT4N7GPlease visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.29 min - Diving Deeper into Hu Honua (Energy 808: The Cutting Edge)
Civil Beat Reporter Paula Dobbyn Shares all. The hosts for this show are Marco Mangelsdorf and Jay Fidell. The guest is Paula Dobbyn.
Paula Dobbyn of Civil Beat has been covering the Hu Honua putative power plant saga over the past year with in-depth reporting from multiple angles. Her two most recent pieces further pull back the veil on the principal players in the story and their extraordinary commitment in trying to keep this facility from going the way of the Superferry.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6lQsvQmOsP0QUupA452eOm2Please visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.50 min - 'The Last Rhinos' by Lawrence Anthony (World of Books)
Battles to Save World's Greatest Creatures. The host for this show is Mihaela Stoops. The guest is Maribeth Theisen.
Maribeth Theisen, a Maui psychotherapist that has been fascinated by wildlife since childhood, introduces us to the world of conservation efforts and its challenges, particularly with rhinoceros and cheetahs. Some may roll their eyes at the suggestion to read a book on conservation, but Lawrence Anthony's book reads like a thriller, with many ups and downs and unexpected situations; one enjoys the descriptions of the natural beauty of Africa, the animals and their connection to humans, as well as the history and political conflicts in several African countries. One learns how to navigate the labyrinth of the bureaucracy related to conservation efforts. But more importantly, one can only be inspired to do more, after reading about the dedication of a small group of people to save the last of a species.The ThinkTech YouTube Playlist for this show is https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQpkwcNJny6nb8XWDbEE9rutmO1mbwBb6Please visit our ThinkTech website at https://thinktechhawaii.com and see our Think Tech Advisories at https://thinktechadvisories.blogspot.com.28 min - Housing with Scott Nunokawa (Politics and Land in Hawaii)

The New Wild West of Social Media. The hosts for this show are Tim Apicella and Jay Fidell. The guest is Jeff Portnoy. Elon Musk owns Twitter lock stock and barrel. The first thing he does is terminate those employees that monitor content, hate speech. With his philosophy that there will be few limitations of the First Amendment--free speech--content monitoring is an inconvenient overhead expense. Since his purchase, slurs against Black Americans increased to 3,876 posts per day from 1,282. Antisemitic posts soared 61% in the first two weeks. Slurs against gay men averaged 2,506 prior to Musk's purchase. It now stands at an average of 3,964 posts. QAnon groups paid for Twitter's stamp of approval for 'verified status'. They received it. Trump's Twitter posts to encourage the MAGA GOP is no longer needed. Extremist hate groups are doing just fine on their own, thanks to Elon.
