Hosts Lei and Drew introduce Mauna a Wākea, Maunakea. In our next episode, our mau mea kipa ~ special guests Pua Case & E. Kalani Flores will share moʻolelo and ʻike about Mauna a Wākea. Check it out anytime on or after November 20, when we usher in the next lunar month Makaliʻi!
This new, fifth season of Ka Leo o ka Uluau will consist of 12 episodes beginning in Welehu 2025, in October, as we continue to focus on our astonishing and inspiring Mauna and bodies of Wai & Kai of Hawaiʻi Island. Just like Season IV (2024-25).
In previous seasons, we highlighted our relationship with native manu of Hawaiʻi (Season III 2023), Hawaiian sustainable practices (Season II 2022) and moʻolelo wahi pana of Hawaiʻi Island (Season I 2021).
Season V episodes will be released throughout the year on the Hilo moon phase of every malama, also known as mahina or lunar month, to raise awareness of and honor this indigenous practice of keeping time.
This segment was released October 22, 2025, initiating the Hawaiʻi lunar month of Welehu, a lunar month of the Hoʻoilo or “winter” season in Hawaiʻi.
