Leslie Wilcox talks story with Ryan Higa, also known as "Nigahiga" on YouTube. His self-produced online comedy videos led to the Hilo native's inadvertent, meteoric rise to national fame. Ryan reveals how he first started using video cameras, his thoughts on the entertainment business and a deal that tested his integrity.
This program is available in high-definition and will be rebroadcast on Sun. Jan. 8, at 4:00 pm.
The Legacy Series
The Legacy Series encapsulates the essence of Long Story Short: preserving the stories, lessons and experiences of Hawaii's own. Join Leslie Wilcox as we honor five guests who have since passed on: Limu specialist Dr. Isabella Aiona Abbott, Hawaiian matriarch Aunty Nona Beamer, Judge Samuel P. King, former Chief Justice William S. Richardson and local TV news legend Bob Sevey were all accomplished in their fields and left legacies that continue to impact Hawaii today.
