About This Podcast
A storytelling podcast where your host, Jay Castro, navigates connection to his CHamoru heritage and the people from the Mariana Islands. Red Rice and fina’denne’ sauce is a staple to the CHamoru cuisine, and it's been part of our people for a long time. The rice is stained with achiote, and the finadene sauce gives traditional dishes like red rice, a pop—a taste that has you going back for more. And that’s the pop of this podcast, a tall story that’ll have you coming back for more. https://hafaadai.org/
