Basically the program uses maps of the Pacific and the US and illustrates locations of US WWII Pacific involvement and locations of Tiki establishments across the US post WWII. then makes comparisons of locations based on where servicemen settled when they returned home.

There is also an art element to the program based on Covorubious style illustrations and maps.

That's a great concept! We could connect to Poly Pop personalities who actually had the personal experience of being stationed in the Pacific, like Barney West, and Bill Westenhaver, and some Tiki Bar owners.
And of course I am a big fan of pictograph maps, and how Covarrubias maps inspired Poly Pop entrepreneurs.
