This Week in TGIF: Augie T, Bachatahisian Festival

Augie T remains true to comedy

Augie Tulba has been a busy man. Over the past two decades, the comedian known as Augie T has worked his way to the forefront of Hawaii’s comedy scene, where his fresh observational humor and spot-on sendups of local characters follow in the tradition of Andy Bumatai, Frank De Lima, Mel Cabang and other giants of local comedy whom he teams up with on “Augie’s Comedy Crusade.”
