Good crowd at the @mprnews.org State Fair booth for the 29th annual State Fair Weather Quiz with the legendary Mark Seeley.

We gave away my grade school attempt at crop art at the Minnesota State Fair Friday.
The winner was very kind with her praise. I don’t think I’ll make another attempt, but will say it was a zen-like experience.

Back in town just in time for the Minnesota State Fair.
Join me and the TPT Almanac team at the @mprnews.org booth Friday from 11am-noon for a live show!
See my first attempt at seed art and an interview with Gov Tim Walz.

Who’s the best radio station pup ever?!
This is Pepperoni who hangs out in the lobby of WTIP radio in Grand Marais.
I was there to raise $ and awareness of the plight of small public stations after federal funding vanished.
Cool staff. Great fun. Good cause.

Funding cuts bring me to Grand Marais, Mn on Lake Superior’s North Shore, to highlight the uncertain future of WTIP radio. They do good work for their community.
Listen at mprnews.org for their story and today’s news.

What a sad/weird day for the Mn. media community.
The funding fallout at Twin Cities PBS meant some staff lost jobs today.
@kare11.bsky.social local shows were knocked off the air by a transformer fire.
They did the news from the Shoreview tele-farm. Where most of the MSP’s broadcast towers are)

Such sad news.
A smart, savvy man, David Gergen served four presidents and leaves behind a legacy in public service.
He has died at the age of 83.
I had the honor of talking to him last year when he was in town.

I know it’s tough to tell, but that’s @npr.org’s Michele Martin across the glass from me. The national team is in MSP to mark the 5 year anniversary of George Floyd’s death.

May 1 is the deadline to apply for a scholarship in my Dad’s name for adult students 40+ years old!
It’s great fun seeing the winners and hearing about their plans!

It’s Severe Weather Awareness Week in Mn and whatever this thing is has been installed outside the studio, but no one knows what it’s supposed to do.
Bad weather coming, push the button and do what? Hide under the desk? Call the Weather Service?

So weird to see one’s face on a billboard.
Fun to see my buddy @svensundgaard.bsky.social!

It’s Monday, 2am CDT.
I’m all screwed up thanks to DST, so might as well coffee up and get this party started.

My nephew is a newly minted doctor who tells me he learned a lot of procedures and worked through medical situations using virtual reality. He said it was very helpful and “cool.”
I conducted a conversation about VR in medical education. Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

The wildfires in CA are unreal.
Curious to know what will happen on Mt. Wilson. Mount Wilson is home to the transmitting towers of nearly every LA TV station, many of FM radio stations and other key communications in SoCal. There are flames near the summit.

I reignited an old passion today…horses!
Did a little riding to end 2024 and had a ball.
Hope you spin into all sorts of great possibilities in 2025.
Happy New Year friends!
