    I was at the Polynesian cultural center 2 weeks ago. This show has matured a lot since 1995 in a fantastic way. Much more comedic and a lot more fun. As tid bit of info, Kap (the guy you see climbing the tree at the end) is now the new chief and is hilarious. Also an artist and a painter selling his art at the cultural center.

    Chief is actually a pretty good role model. He's strong, and physically intimidating, but well spoken, worldly and intelligent. Confident, but very friendly. He takes charge of the room, but also not afraid to have fun and look silly himself. He's basically doing a comedy show and teaching people survival skills at the same time, with jokes that are timeless and funny to people from very different cultures like America and Japan. Dude is a real Chad.

      Actually he demean himself. Whites,esp american, think tribal people are stupid and backwards.(or basically other country sucks and they r the best/most advanced) That's why his jokes worked. (Bic,gasoline,pissing on fire etc)

      In our local area we have a comedian who is funny even if he speaks a normal everyday conversation with a bit of a stutter, we called him a born and gifted comedian, his every word was funny, but if his joke was done by others its more like a cringe, that is why the comedian is an important role as their material really sums up their joke and their delivery is on point.

    Amazing natural comedian. Best laughter I've had in a while. Thank you for sharing. Chief's enthusiasm shines and in the short 25 minutes, I'm certain we all learned, were entertained and given memorable insights of Samoan culture.

    He's really really good in his timing as well as his delivery lol he's in this, say, neutral territory, when it comes to humor, where it's generally understandable by anybody from various cultural origins. Plus the voice cracks 😆 it adds to his delivery. Most of all, it's beautiful when people still preserve the traditions of their ancestors despite advancing into modernity in a very fast pace
