Crime, corruption, scandal ... You won't find it in the travel brochures or on the postcards, but life in Hawaii isn't always paradise. In this podcast from Hawaii News Now Chief Investigative Reporter Lynn Kawano, we take you behind the headlines that the visitor bureaus don't advertise and delve into the stories that keep us talking (and up at night).

Please go into further detail and explain more of the backstory for future episodes. The episodes assume the listener is local and a certain age and that they would know the backstory but some of us are much younger locals. Otherwise excellent reporting Lynn! Loved watching the work you did on the Kealoha case.
Mahalo for sharimg such great insight to corruption & dirty hands withon Hawaiʻi.
how can we be a model to others when our backyard is full of the pōhō, & rotten.
Opening message of the episodes tries to guilt trip parents alluding that if your CHOICE is not to give your child an experimental vaccine, that you’re basically a bad parent that isn’t looking out for you kid’s safety and well being. Considering that children are the most likely to recover, what’s more dangerous? A sick kid for a week or so, or making your child part of a grand political and medical experiment?
No thanks. Keep your podcast and your agenda… I’ll have none of it.
Big mahalo Lynn. Hoping with this podcast it makes us a lil safe or at least aware. There is an underbelly of crime, corruption, sexual assaults, among a wide variety of lesser headline catching crimes.
Wish these podcast were a lil longer. Great job🤙🏻
These are all really good stories but if I didn’t know them from living in Hawaii, I may not be able to follow them. Have you considered a longer format explaining the main story line? I think you could do a really great, in depth story about the Kealoha’s in particular
