I love your station. So many great programs ! Hula Honeys, Musical Star Streams, and Big Al’s juke joint are among my favorites

Recently began listening as I had heard your call letters while tuned to WWOZ’s broadcast of Jazz Fest. Full disclosure, I am a show host at community radio station WOMR.rnWe are in Provincetown, MA At the tip of Cape Cod. I like what I’m hearing!rn

The DJs make an effort to not only share but TEACH the music that inspires them. So much more rewarding than what you find on the mainstream.

Phat Tony is our fave. Excellent / sophisticated musical taste. How about some Firesign Theater snippits, Bonzo Dog Doo Daa Band & maybe Rob & Ray. We’ll keep listening!
-Barry & Marilyn Kroner
We found you in our rental car at 5 am last Thursday morning heading up to catch sunrise on Haleakala. It really got us going, song after song blowing us away. Within 24 hours of being home, we’d both looked you up online. And I promise, I’ve never fallen in love with a radio station before. Best music we’ve ever heard over genre after genre.

To All You Great People,
Long time listener here. Always great and new music with no effort on my end.
Bill Best is the best. Such a never ending great host. He has a level of delivering great music and comedy consistently unmatched by anyone. Phat Tony voted number 1 for a reason. The time he put into his shows was reflected by the best 4 hrs of the week. One of the happiest moments in recent history was coming out of the pandemic. Bill Best and Phat Tony banter as their shows butted up to each other. It was the best step on getting back to normal. The Hula honey’s are the sweetest giggling woman. Who are just beautiful and entertaining. Pistol Pete is a rocker. Man that dude is blood pumping let us rock show. Brent’s Garage is ear pounder also. A Monday Morning Fire Alarm show. Is the kickstart this week of pace I enjoy. Hawaiian Steel show gives me such pleasure. Duncan Mac such a positive expression through and through.Her made me want to be nicer to the world always.

I’m not much for calling in but want to tell you how very much I enjoy your music and look forward to your show every week (long before I had the pleasure of seeing you perform at the Kaunoa Senior Center). Thank you for your music and volunteer work at Mana’o Radio!
-Eugenia

I just want to say thank you for a wonderful set! This morning I was coming to work about 9 o’clock and listen to some wonderful Jazz. It’s amazing the selection that your DJ played. We are so very fortunate to have this radio station alive and well on Maui!
