Future of the Democratic Party: Tim Vandeveer
There’s no doubt that Hawai‘i is bluer than blue… and like other states in the same category, it’s a question of what shade of blue Democrats support. Some, including many younger and first time voters prefer the Sanders hue, more seasoned voters are choosing Hillary Clinton. In Hawai‘I, the split resonated at the state convention, where Democrats chose new leadership and made a categorical statement over the issue of superdelegates the next time around. New party chair and Sanders supporter Tim Vandeveer, has already met with the rest of the leadership team and is in our studio now.

UH KIDS FIRST! Film Festival Celebrates 1st Decade: Ann Brandman
So many kids’ movies, the kind that make their way to the multiplex, seem like adult movies in disguise, filled with smart-alecky adult humor that doesn’t really fit a child’s sensibility when you see movies that do speak to that sensibility, you can really tell the difference. Several of the films being shown at the 10th annual UH Manoa KIDS FIRST! Film Festival celebrates children’s fascination with the natural world. Ann Brandman of the UH Outreach College has been putting the festival together, and she’s with us in our studio.
