Lovemyukulele.com posted a 45-minute video of Joe Souza, founder of Kanile'a and master luthier, talking about the history of the ukulele, showing how one is made, and performing some songs. While there probably won't be too much that is really new for anyone but a noob, there are interesting tidbits throughout the video (the last 20 or so are him playing songs, which I admittedly skipped over). For example, he mentions there are several hundred species of koa growing in Hawaii. He is a surprisingly proficient public speaker.

Thought I'd mention in case anyone has some spare time. Get a hot cup of coffee and enjoy!
