WEB BUZZ

From Hawaii, snippets of island lore

Clueless about Hawaii? The Volcano Radio podcast, www.volcanoradio.com, will steer you to places that those lucky enough to live in the islands know about.

What's hot: The podcast is a little tourism and a lot island culture — slack key guitar, pollution in the Ala Wai Canal in Waikiki, the scene in Chinatown, learning to surf in Waikiki. Husband-and-wife hosts Stewart Yerton and Malia Boyd keep things low-key and conversational.

What's not: Tune into Volcano Radio only when you are jammed on the 405 or are multi-tasking: The podcasts run about 30 minutes.

Where am I?

The French built this place before the Americans took it over. There are a couple of big lakes next door.
