Ahead of National Radio Day, August 20, we're sharing some clips with a touch of Hawai‘i that have recently aired nationally on NPR.

Maunakea on Morning Edition Leila Fadel and A Martínez discuss the prospect of a new telescope on Maunakea and changes with the new state law that will transfer jurisdiction to the Mauna Kea Stewardship and Oversight Authority. Hear from Doug Simons from UH's Institute for Astronomy and Dr. M. Noe Noe Wong-Wilson, a cultural practitioner and native rights activist who leads a Native Hawaiian group that has major reservations about the new telescope. Listen and read

A false alarm on This American Life:
This prologue takes us back to the 2018 false missile alert. O‘ahu resident Mike McFarland tells Ira Glass about trying to get a message to someone under the most critical deadline imaginable—emphasis on “imagine.”  Listen

Hawai‘i ties on NPR’s Book of the Day, as heard on It’s Been A Minute Set in the months leading up to the false nuclear missile alert in 2018, author Joseph Han’s debut novel "Nuclear Family" follows a Korean American family and their span across Hawai‘i and the Korean Peninsula.

A small bite shared on Weekend Edition: Weekend Edition asked for submissions of odd gnoshes to beat the heat. A Honolulu resident shared her tip for Tajín seasoning, which host Scott Simon took to the test kitchen.  Listen and read
