Happy birthday to Bob Seger — and good luck playing his music on air! On this special Tuesday-after-Cinco-de-Mayo episode of the Need to Know Morning Show, Kevin and Alex dive into everything from sunny North Dakota forecasts to wild political proposals like reopening Alcatraz. Along the way, they chat with Fargo’s retiring fire chief, Steve Dirksen, share a deep-dive agricultural update with Bridget Readel, and reflect on Trump’s latest border ideas. Plus: NBA/NHL playoff chatter, Mother’s Day plans, and yes — crepes Suzette. A true NTK classic! ⏱️ Standout Moments (Timestamps): [00:00] – No Bob Seger intro?!
