This is the second time in just a few days where I got to sit back to listen and learn. Did you know we host the Biggest Week in Birding here in our area? It's often a news story this time of year, and things will be closer to normal after two years of COVID keeping people from all over the planet from visiting.

Please enjoy the birding expertise of UT student Nate Koszycki. 

Where the birds come from.

What to look for and where.

The Maumee Bay Plovers.

And dinosaurs!

It's Good Friday. All, well most, Friday's are good!

Easter, Passover and Jesus. Apologies for the deep snarky humor. 

My visit to Perrysburg's career day. Teaching and instructing is exhausting.

Peeps and candy corn.

It's a Tik Tok weekend on the station.

Ear licking.

Massive Rossford mansion for sale.

Comparing Rihanna and Britney's pregnancies and maybe the cost of yours!

Top five podcast guest we've ever had. 

Alex and I sat, watched and listened in awe of just how impressive Ohio House of Representative candidate Erika White is.

First up, the Springfield levy to fund Lucas County Sheriffs.

Why is she running?

Hoping Black women follow in her path.

These tense labor times we are in.

And an entire spectrum of mental health discussion. 

My friend, Mary Bilyeu, from the Blade has returned to talk...

Silly things you NEED to start embracing.

Paska, a Ukrainian bread you will love.

Passover is this week. Be careful of your gefilte fish. 

Mary's missive to peanut butter.

She also still has her hand issue from last year. John Elway can't cure you.

Peep!

Opening Day was survived.

Mary got to visit Coop's but before the alcohol.

Laura Kuhlenbeck from Courageous Community Services has returned to talk about their upcoming gala honoring those in the community that are overwhelming supporters of those with disabilities. 

Friend of a good friend of the show - PHILLIPE! - Dom Glover is on to remind me not to overlook the dance community when it comes to arts in Toledo. AND to invite you to THE Modern Dance Company's performance of EXPERIOR CLICK HERE.

No, NAMI isn't helping my recovery from Opening Day, actually, none is needed. But my friend and NAMI's director, Robin Isenberg is here to talk about their new building, their free services and the upcoming walk!

Before that...

My ride on TARTA to the game.

Opening Day adventures, and lots and lots and lots of pics.

Research what you want to do for a living.

Life is not so simple as a saying on social or the internet.

Baseball in the inner city. STILL. 

The Grammy's were going one of two ways. More chaotic than the Oscar's, or as they did last night.

Something of mine was stolen.

I'm still intending to take TARTA downtown tomorrow.

I'm OK being on an island, but occasionally being like others is comforting. We seem to ALL dislike this overpass.

The right thing happens at Perrysburg schools. Sorry Kam.

Hey, wanna buy a meal? 

After Kelly McConnaughy tells you what she's calling the Reynolds corridor where the new Humane Society thrift store is opening, I'm stealing it :)

I didn't even think to add in At Home. Though I often find things there more expensive than I expect them to be. That's a me problem though. 

Anyway, shop there (when it opens), help the dogs!

We begin with Heardle.

This modest 1998 hit - that I LOVED - from a legendary artist has new life. 

Alex has some wedding challenges. 

Very bad accident outside of TSA this morning.

Last words on Will Smith.

The Grammy's are Sunday.

Alex's engagement shoot is this weekend. 

One of my favorite visits of the year: Professional hockey and baseball announces, Matt Melzak! Who is just weeks away from being a daddy of a little girl!

Before a visit with Matt about dad, Walleye, Mud Hens and Tiger things (I saved the gory sports minutiae till the very end)...

A pearl is coming to downtown, and a legendary NBA player is also so much more now. But not without appropriate criticism.
