Originally published March 2, 2016

Summary:

Show 45 of the Exotic Tiki Island Podcast begins with Tiki Brian welcoming listeners to another tropical escape filled with vintage Hawaiian, exotica, and tiki music. For this episode’s journey, Captain Scotty B arrives on a magic carpet, inviting everyone aboard for a whimsical Far‑East‑meets‑South‑Pacific ride to the island. After a smooth landing on the main beach, the captain prepares the refreshing Passion Fizz cocktail, setting the perfect tone for a relaxing day in paradise. As the group enjoys their drinks, something unusual washes ashore—another lost audio tape from the upcoming This Is Vintage Now Volume 2 compilation—adding a fun treasure‑hunt twist to the adventure.

The exploration continues as Brian and the captain head to the Hurricane Hut Lounge, where the Ukadelics perform a lively set of tropical lounge music, including originals from their album Runaway Pineapple Truck. The lounge atmosphere, filled with ukuleles, percussion, and retro island vibes, becomes a highlight of the episode. As evening approaches, the group returns to the main beach—just in time to discover the final missing audio tape, completing the ongoing storyline of recovering the lost recordings. The episode closes with warm mahalos, one last featured track, and a promise of more music and adventure in the next show.
