KŪ PROJECT PODCAST

Good conversations
stay with you.

Conversations with people about the experiences, relationships, places and ideas that have shaped who they are.

WHY WE TALK STORY

Connection starts
with listening.

The KŪ Project Podcast began in 2015 with a simple idea: sit down with people and listen.

More than 100 conversations later, we're still interested in the same thing - the stories people carry, the experiences that shape them and what we can learn when we give each other enough time to talk.

Some conversations are about identity. Others about family, creativity, culture, work, community, health, place or simply figuring life out.

Different people. Different stories.

The connection is what matters.

START LISTENING

Conversations worth spending time with.

"I started listening for a link to home. I've climbed, cycled, martial arts and organized sports. It's a great match for my life. Hawaiian spirituality combined with sound PT. This is a gift to us on the mainland. Thank you brother!"

"Always come away with knowledge and mana from this podcast. Mahalo."

"I've been following the KŪ Project on IG and had no idea about this podcast. I feel I needed to hear this as a Native Hawaiian Activist."
