Barbershop and Wetlands!

The Arts and Sciences converge on today's show.

We caught up with Audubon Alaska's Communications Manager, Lauren Cusimano, at Discovery Day at Potter Marsh talking birds and wetlands. We asked our Science Guy, Dr. Gordon Snyder, to reflect on Lauren's observations and his thoughts about the slow turnout of wildlife so far. 

To sharpen his music chops, Director of the Anchorage Midnight Sons Chorus, Phil Cheasbro, attends Harmony College Northwest at the U of Puget Sound (https://harmonycollege.net/). Executive Vice President of the Evergreen District Barbershop Harmony Society, Duncan Gilman, fills us in and what takes place there. 

We even had a Tall Alaska Tale for Duncan!

Barbershop, Books & Birthdays!

The Anchorage Midnight Sons Chorus Director, Phil Cheasebro, joined us with a special guest, his mother, Margaret Cheasebro! It was her birthday and we thought it a good idea to celebrate with Uncle Steve's hand trumpet - which was more than a little rusty! Margaret's story is intriguing, plus, she's an author! A perfect fit with our other guest, Lois Simenson aka Lolo Paige, to talk about her new book, Firestorm!
