Dive into Modern Tiki: Female Creators Reshaping the Culture, a podcast celebrating women transforming Tiki culture in 2025. Once a male-driven, 1950s fantasy steeped in colonial stereotypes, Tiki is now vibrant and inclusive, thanks to female bartenders, artists, and advocates. This series, alive with exotica music and clinking mugs, explores their stories through lively interviews and tropical tips.
Meet innovators like Shannon Mustipher, whose Women Who Tiki and Afro-Caribbean cocktails redefine mixology, and Dawn Frasier, crafting feminist Tiki mugs. Entrepreneurs like Melissa Vitale create welcoming bars, while Mireille Thornton’s authentic Polynesian dances at The Mai-Kai honor cultural roots. Advocates like Chockie Tom reimagine Tiki respectfully, addressing its appropriative past. From TikTok tutorials to Tiki Oasis events, these women make Tiki a global, equitable community.
Modern Tiki reveals how they’re correcting the 1950s-1970s’ exclusion of diverse voices, replacing kitsch with authenticity. Whether you’re a Tiki fan or new to the scene, this podcast offers a refreshing sip of a culture reborn.
