Connections. 
At the heart of it, libraries are about connections: books, movies, information, and, increasingly, people.
And those connections have the potential to transform lives and communities.
And, in fact, they already are.
In this week's 7Bee Podcast,  join us for a conversation with Brendan Mooney, IT manager at the East Bonner County Library; Alex Gray, technology teacher at Sandpoint High School; Damaso Mangabat, T-Mobile store manager in Ponderay;
Michelle Buck; Frank Foderaro, Lifelong Learning coordinator at EBCL; and Brenden Bobby, STEM coordinator.

In the latest edition of the 7Bee Podcast, join reporter Caroline Lobsinger as she talks with Keely Gray of Lake Pend Oreille Repertory Theater about the company's newest production, "Legally Blonde: The Musical". 

Much like the classic movie starring Reese Witherspoon, the musical follows Elle Woods on her journey of self-discovery and the power and importance of being unreservedly, unabashedly yourself.

It's likely the historic wreck recently found in the greater Sandpoint area was deliberately sunk. But who is she? What is the vessel's story? Ah, that remains the mystery. In this edition of the 7Bee Podcast, reporter Caroline Lobsinger talks to Chris McNaughton, Austin Smith and Cailey Vallone, part of a team behind the exploration of the wreck, about the discovery, the dive and why it's important to protect and preserve such sites.
