| 4/19/26 | Dawn Marie commands you to win up Sunshines version of a Piña Colada, the Sunshine Colada. After that you are free to enjoy the podcast. This episode our listener mail asks: Is there a recommended maximum number of Zombies a responsible tiki enthusiast at an event. Is there an official rule about how many cocktails umbrellas you can put on one drink? What’s one item that instantly makes a backyard tiki area feel more tiki that people overlook? Upcoming Tiki Events and Happenings:You have heard all of us talk about missing Don the Beachcomber after it closed its only mainland location that was located in Huntington/Sunset Beach. Don’s Ohana Reunion 2 Dallas Tiki Week May 17 - 24, 2026. We have not attended this event but had a few listeners say it was fun last year. This is the second year of the event and the line up is intriguing. Its mostly intriguing because the website still has last years info but the instagram page is current. If you attend, consider recording a voice memo on your phone and sending to us at mail@zentikilounge.com. Be our unpaid intern correspondent. The Tiki Bar at Excalibur Easy Sailor Rochester NY | — | |||||||

| 3/3/24 | 474 Wrangling Cats, Dry January?, New Music: Mr. Moai and the Tiki Heads | This is one of our rare episodes with all four hosts present.

| 12/9/23 | 473 Who Says Aloha? We May Never Know | During the recording of this, our 473rd episode, Pumpkin acted like she didn’t know how we start the show. There is a way of doing things. We may not be very professional but we do have some “best practices”. After clearing up who says Aloha first we get right to the cocktail, our listener mail and some party planning and hosting tips. Thats pretty much the show. We stuck to the basics. Listen, drink, enjoy! | — | ||||||

| 10/14/23 | 472 Are Tomatoes Tiki? And The Missionaries Downfall | Starshine and Kalani and Pumpkin, Oh my! All the ladies are in the lounge for one of our rare all host podcasts. If you hear meowing cats its because Sunshine couldn’t edit out all the cross talk. Sorry. Sunshine and the ladies have some catching up to do including: Summer tomato tastings from our gardens (it turns dirty say you may assume), what scent is your tiki bar (it also turns dirty), and what event was I ate when I was found passed out in a stairwell. Classic. | — | ||||||

| 4/16/23 | 467 Fight!? What Fight? Aloooooooha | April 1st is just another day. Though, there is one tradition we had never participated in. Practical jokes are always fun for someone but not always everyone. Well, we went for it with mostly positive “ha ha” results. On our previous episode the hosts of ZTL created a not so elaborate scheme to convince people that we had broken up due to a little tiki back stabbing. But not to worry, all is good with the four of us and this podcast is proof. What if there was a tiki centric football podcast? Would you listen?If Starshine and Kalani could no longer be in the same room together, would ZTL still go on?Does Pumpkin really care at all?Those are some of the things we explore on this reunion episode. In addition to some Mai Tai’s and listener mail. We hope you enjoy having all four hosts back together | — | ||||||
