Whatʻs the Connection?
By Kai and Ka‘imi ‘Ike ~ Good Juju EverywhereHistory
Whatʻs the Connection? episodes
- When the Earth farts
Ep. 36: When the Earth farts…
Louis-Auguste Cyparis • Johanna Beijerinck • Stanley Williams
A rum-loving troublemaker. A society hostess. A scientist with a cowboy streak. This should be an interesting dinner party. 🥃
Three wildly different lives, one unexpected connection - and Kai is leaving some suspiciously large gaps in the stories. Can Ka‘imi ‘Ike piece it together? Can you?
Pack your curiosity: we’re hopping continents, taking questionable detours and briefly confusing science with psychic powers. Expect circus intrigue, some very creative math and theories that deserve their own sideshow.
The connection is only part of the ride, and somehow, we still have to get to dragons. 🐉

🎙️ Ep. 34: Honor Among Fools
David S. Terry • Henry Charles Moorhead Hawkey • Vicente García de Paredes
What do an angry former judge with a Bowie knife, a hot-tempered Royal Marine, and a Spanish military man tangled up in money, rumors, and somebody else’s wife have in common?
Ka‘imi ‘Ike and Kai follow three men whose ideas about honor, insults, and wounded pride lead to spectacularly bad decisions—and some very short walks with very high stakes.
Egos flare, pistols appear, and history gets delightfully ridiculous. Think you’ve got the connection? Stick around—this one goes out with a bang.

Jacob Halladjian • George Shishim • George Dow
Three immigrants. Three magnificent mustaches. One very strange chapter of American history. 🥸
An Armenian artist, a Lebanese police chief and a Maronite merchant share an unexpected connection—but can Kai'ime uncover it before Kai gives it away?
Expect hidden history, questionable pronunciations and one very opinionated dog.

42 min - Classy Broads. RESPECT!
Ep. 30: Classy Broads. RESPECT!
Pearl Hart • Doris Payne • Rose Dugdale
A runaway.
A woman with impeccable taste.
And a debutante who walked away from everything she was supposed to be.
What do they have in common?
In this episode, Ka‘imi ‘Ike and Kai follow a trail of bold choices, reinvention, and moments that make you pause and think… wait, did that actually just work?
Get ready for intrigue, misdirection, and more than a few raised eyebrows. 😈
We spiral into:
✨ A woman history underestimated
✨ A life that defied social rules
✨ Power operating quietly behind the scenes
✨ And the subtle art of making the impossible look effortless
With sharp humor, curious detours, and plenty of “wait… WHAT?” moments, Ka‘imi and Kai explore how reputation, gender, and timing shape the stories we’re told—and the ones we miss.
You probably shouldn’t root for them.…But you might.
🎧 Listen now.

1 hr - Sympathy for Broccoli & Other Questionable Beliefs
Ep. 29: Sympathy for Broccoli & Other Questionable Beliefs
Helen Keller • John Chapman • Ralph Waldo Emerson
What do a deaf-blind activist, a wandering folk hero, and a man who casually chatted with angels have in common?
In this episode, Ka‘imi ‘Ike and Kai follow a trail where philosophy collides with mysticism, science blurs into spirituality, and belief starts to get… interesting. What begins grounded quickly spirals into something far less predictable.
We wander through:
✨ A man who showed kindness to… everything
✨ Big ideas that didn’t always stay inside the lines
✨ Influence that spread in quiet (and surprising) ways
✨ And a worldview that might make you rethink your relationship with broccoli
Is this a story about belief, madness, genius—or something else entirely?
With laughter, side tangents, and plenty of “wait… WHAT?” moments, this episode explores how ideas take root—and what happens when they really start to grow.
Stay to the end. The connection is stranger (and more real) than it sounds.
🎧 Listen now. This one might change how you see things… even the green ones.

44 min - You Brought… What?
Yukio Ozaki • Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi • Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan**
A statesman.
A sculptor.
A philosopher.
What do they have in common? And something very public that changed everything.
In this episode, Ka‘imi ‘Ike and Kai follow a trail of oversized symbolism, awkward ceremonies, logistical chaos, and objects that carried way more meaning than anyone admitted out loud.
We spiral into:
• Grand gestures that almost went sideways Public smiles hiding private politics
• Something so big it had to be shipped in pieces
• And piece of wood revered by many
Stay to the end. The connection has been sitting in plain sight the entire time.
Press play. You’ll never look at certain very familiar things the same way again.

From scandal and secret societies to daring exploits and elaborate fantasy maps, this story spirals through ego, reinvention, and the power of believing your own legend.

45 min - Chemotherapy, Mercury, and Booby-Smashing
Jenny Oropeza · Barbara Cooper · Patsy Matsu Mink
What starts as a story about women fighting for the right to vote quickly turns into a discussion about farts in a tunnel. Yes—really. In this episode, Ka‘imi ‘Ike and Kai follow a trail that begins with determination and courage… and somehow ends up in places that make you say, “Wait—how did we get HERE?”
Along the way, familiar history gets flipped, bold women take center stage, and “progress” reveals itself as messy, surprising, and occasionally ridiculous. Stick with it till the end—the final turn is unexpected, deeply satisfying, and proof that the wildest detours are sometimes the whole point.
