Todays episode Malama Aina was very emotional and brought me to tears. I’m sitting here at my desk at work with my ear pods on listening and working on a spreadsheet crying! Mahalo for the good work that you do!

I was searching for a podcast with Hawaii obake stories and stumbled across What School You Went and instantly got hooked! Not only great obake stories that come with insightful, respectful story telling but I have learned so much more about our unique culture here in our islands that i never knew! Many wonderful episodes that reminds us why we so lucky we live Hawai’i! Mahalo Ron!
