Get Real With Rick Dancer

People in Montana are mad. In one year taxes doubled and tripled from what they were. No can seem to nail down a reason so we went to the local paper to talk with a guy who's been following this mess for years .

One of the stories I did as a news anchor that never left me is the one you are about to see. A missing boy. A desperate family. The kindness of strangers and so on. Also, Newsman Bill Lundun shares more crazy Oregon news. One story that should really have you concerned...at least one.

This Saturday Native Americans will be in Townsend Montana to share dancing, culture, stories and food. We talked with the presenters, natives, about the tribes in Montana and much more. It's a very interesting interview and look into Montana history. Then we share an Oregon Native story of a island given back to it's original tribe and our connection and last visit to this sacred place.

Ben Edtl is with Free Oregon, a group fighting for the voices and the rights of all Oregonians. What Ben talks about may make you uncomfortable but that doesn't mean the conversation is not important. We all need to speak up about what we believe to be right and wrong. I hope you enjoy this conversation or at least get challenged by it.

Marci is one of the bravest people I know. I met her years ago while producing a television series on teen suicide. Marci and my path have crossed numerous times over the years. I think you'll really enjoy this conversation. It's real and there is some language so you've been warned.

Oregon is a little crazy when it comes to passing legislation. Eugene NewsMan Bill Lundun joins us to talk about some of the craziest things that will make your head spin. If you don't live in Oregon you will chuckle. If you do live in Oregon you will roll your eyes and wonder how in the hell you got there.

A friend called me to tell me she and some of her Oregon friends are stuck in Israel in this mess. This morning she spoke with me on video and had an interesting take on what's going on. Here's that conversation.

I'm really angry that so many ignorant people in America and organizations are coming out against Israel. This is just crazy and there are a bunch of other current affairs frustrating the hell out of me. If you are easily offended you probably don't want to watch this...if you like to be educated, listen in.

We all know what if feels like not to fit in. But what if everyday you had to get up and work twice as hard just to be on a level playing field with so called "normal" people.

The may you are about to hear from has CP. He lives most of his life in a wheelchair. I've never heard anyone speak so openly, honestly and painfully about the experience.

We can learn a lot when we aren't afraid of the tough conversations.

Here's one for you.
