I think he is a great podcast...”Read full review »

“My family is originally from Hawaii, but we donβt make it back as often as Iβd like. HVC is a fun, bite-sized podcast that helps me feel connected to, and a bit updated with, the islands. Keep up the great work Bruce!”

“Interesting podcast but growing tired of all the vaccine talk. Itβs one thing to talk about Hawaiiβs regulations but itβs annoying listening to constant pushing to get the vaccine. Itβs more than a political decision. Some people have health reasons to not get it.”
