Aloha" is a word found in all Polynesian languages meaning a spirit of loving togetherness. And that is what you will get every Friday morning as a rotating crew of Sheena's Jungle Room DJs (and special guests) spin three hours of relaxing exotica in all its forms, from the primitive to the Space Age. Can we get you something from the bar?

Listener comments!
I just now stumbled out of bed and saw his request for a login.
@WR: I need to break it to my boss that no work is getting done for the next three hours.
Hi Ursula! Nice 101 Strings/Les Baxter album you played yesterday!
A home run. Out of the park even. A joy and a stone gas from beginning to end.
