The Reviews Are In: "A Must Listen."
Great listen while working today. I’ve been spreading the good word on Mana’o Radio to all my friends and family here on the mainland, i.e. Seattle and beyond. It’s wonderful to stay connected to Maui and my ohana there.

Thanks to Geri Valdriz for playing the music of my life as well as those of my parents and grandparents! My husband enjoys many of Mana’o’s show–right now, he happily has on Sweet Mama D’s blues show.

— I have eclectic taste in music, so the eclectic blends spun by the DJ Ohana, even on the specialty programs, is right up my alley.

I live near Boston. Discovered your radio years ago when I read an article about Charles Laquidara retiring to Maui. I’ve been to Hawaii four times. I love the spirit and vibe. And especially your inspirational programming. Keep up the spirit during these recent hard times.

I want to thank Dr. B for his Valentine show yesterday (Holoholo Na Mele). I am in central WA, where the covid stay-home-don’t-mingle time has been made even less bearable by a Polar Vortex Surprise that has dropped over a foot of snow where I live. Bitter cold temperatures and impassable roads. Espresso and good chocolate sure help, but it’s a challenge.
My sister, a long-time resident of Wailuku, torments me with photos of green things, her flowers, and descriptions of “cold nights” of 60 degrees.
I caught part of the program yesterday and was immediately warmed and cheered by it. Now I am replaying it over and over on demand. The 60’s music took me back to watching American Bandstand after school, and Johnny Mathis singing “The Twelfth of Never” reminded me of seeing him live in Seattle with a rotating mirror ball above him. To my teenage self, it was like a dream!
So a huge, sincere THANKS to Manao Radio and Dr. B. Better than chocolate this weekend!

My friend and I found 91.7 while we were in Maui last May. After returning to AZ, I have continued to listen to the Hula Honeys with great pleasure. I support my local radio station KXCI here in Tucson. Independent radio is the best. Big love to you all.
-Nancy S
My favorite radio station. They are independent and community supported and play a wide variety of music and a lot of stuff you wouldn’t otherwise here. Not your top 40 station by any means which is great. They always promote local events and do a lot for local non profits and similar organizations.
-Dane L.
Dr. B, Bill Best, and all your hosts put wonder in our day. Mahalo nut loa.
