I think it’s pretty cool that Olelo has opened up a place for legislators and their staff to produce videos and use equipment right at the capital building.
From the Senate Majority Caucus Blog:
“It’s finally here! After much collaboration and anticipation,`Olelo Community Television unveiled their new video production studio today, Monday February 2, 2009, right here at the Capitol.
Studio@Capitol is a full in-house video production facility complete with video production equipment available for rent, two editing stations, and a DVD duplicating center. It is available to all members of the Hawai`i State Legislature, State Administration and staff to create, shoot and edit their own productions…”
Now here is what is blowing me away… A senator has already mentioned the following:
…There is great interest and excitement about what this could mean in terms of new ways to reach out to the public and connect with constituents. You can bet each Senator has their own ideas on how to do that. Among them, there has been mention of hosting a cooking show, an end-of-session wrap up, weekly video podcasting, and much more!…

So I’m throwing around names of cooking shows that could be possible with some of our current Senators and this is what I’ve come up with… Feel free to add your own:
- “Cooking with Kalani“
- “Brickwoods Oven”
- “Baking with Baker“
- “Frying with Fukunaga“
- “Stewing with Slom“
- “Grilling with Gabbard“
- “Tempuring with Takamine“
- “Burning with Bunda“
- “Garnishing with Green“
- “Poaching Ige’s“
- “Chopped Chun“
- “Wokking Will“
- “Canning with Colleen“
- “Filleting with Fred“
- “Hashing with Hooser“
- “Kimchi with Kim“
- “Les Fat”
- “Kosher with Kokuburn“
- “Braising with Brian“
- “Jambalaya with Jill“
- “Steaming with Tsutsui”
- “Sake with Sakamoto“
- “Noodles with Nishihara“
- “Marinating with Michelle“
- “Creaming with Clayton“
I know I’m missing a few… but I figured too many cooks would spoil the broth.
I just love when our tax money is spent on a good cooking show.
