In the second part of the discussion, James Scott talks about the balance he tries to maintain for Punahou between traditions from the past and innovations for the future and also talks about a Punahou initiative that helps public school students get ready for college and speculates on his future as the school's president.

In this episode we continue the conversation with Walter Dods, Jr. He still has an office at First Hawaiian Bank downtown, still serves on many boards, still is a community leader and political insider. His banking career soared. But his career in elective office was shut down before it ever got started.

Legendary Hawaii News Anchor Bob Sevey sits down with Leslie Wilcox to continue his talk about Hawaii television then and now.

In part two of her interview with the Hawaiian language scholar, Leslie Wilcox talks with Puakea Nogelmeier about this thirty years of work perpetuating an appreciation of the richness and intricacies of the Hawaiian language and culture. They also discuss the herculean task of translating into English the 500 page "Epic Tale of Hi'iakaopoliopele," and Puakea's collaboration with others to translate into English many 19th and 20th century Hawaiian newspaper articles and put them online. Puakea also explains the true meaning of the word kaona (it's not what most people think), and what it's like to be the voice of The Bus.
