The Shaggy Jenkins Show

Have you ever been scrolling through your social media or video streaming site, and then all of a sudden you see an ad that makes you go .. "Wait, what?" In this installment, Shaggy discusses how some groups think that social media is elevating transgender as a trend, and all the many, many ways that is completely and totally wrong.

🌟 In this concluding episode, Shaggy delves into a critical issue that's hindering our recovery from the recent disaster: Misinformation. While it's natural for many of us to feel frustration, confrontation, and even anger when faced with those who embrace unfounded theories, could our reactions be contributing to the problem? Discover valuable insights on how to guide individuals back to...

The long delay from last week's normal schedule was done for a good reason: The US House of Representatives is once again toying with politics in a way that can shut down the federal government in a crucial time for our disaster recovery efforts. How bad can it get? Shaggy lays it out in this episode

In this episode, Shaggy covers the ways that "cashing in" on Hawaiian culture isn't just a new story, but one that has direct impacts to the recovery of Maui in the aftermath of the August 8th wildfires.

It's pretty evident to anyone paying attention that modern society exists in 2 different levels of attachment to reality. While conspiracy theories may be "fun" to some, how they became such a problem is a long story. Shaggy covers the history of conspiracies, and how they impact recovery efforts in the wake of natural disasters. There's lots of BIG words, and small suggestions,...

9/11 happened 22 years ago today. Much like how the country, and specifically New York recovered, Maui is now on that long path as well in the wake of the Maui Wildfires. Are there some lessons we can take from 9/11 to help us look forward to the road ahead? In this episode, Shaggy explores the lessons, and downfalls, of 9/11 and how they apply to Maui's future.

In this episode, Shaggy talks about the recovery efforts and the soon-to-be-announced Lahaina Restoration Association. When it comes to rebuilding a historical town, whose history is the one you use? It's all broken down in a tale of two trees, and a Kingdom stolen.

Let's face it, things are never good according to the internet. In this episode though, Shaggy tells you why those crazy folks known as influencers might be just the help Maui needs.

You've seen them everywhere, "MAUI FUNDRAISER!" or "SUPPORT MAUI" laden images, flyers, and ads for events, products, or charities, but have you ever really read beyond that? Morals versus Ethics aside, once you read past the big splashy texts you start to see where your "donation" goes. In light of Maui's tragedy "trending", Shaggy tries to warn abo...

On this episode, Shaggy discusses the way disasters never happen how people think they do, and how long the recovery efforts really take. Strap in, as this episode goes from 9/11, to Katrina, to Maui.

We're back baby! Recently the events on my home island of Maui have been all over the news and social media. However, despite the massive amounts of time we spend on factually reporting the tragedy to outsiders, it seems a particular group of white, bearded, ALL CAPS TYPING TikTok and IG users are using the tragedy, and lies about it, for follows. Join Shaggy this week as he debunks the beardo...
