On this post-Easter Monday edition of What’s On Your Mind, Scott Hennen broadcasts live from The Hive in Grand Forks with a packed lineup of news, tributes, and exciting updates. We begin with reflections on Easter and the passing of Pope Francis, featuring a deep, heartfelt conversation with Monsignor James Shea, President of the University of Mary, and media mogul Chris Ruddy of Newsmax. They share reflections on Pope Francis’s legacy, his impact on the Church, and the process of selecting the next Pope. Then, Scott previews upcoming visits from high-level defense and agriculture officials, including Dr. Derek Tournear of the Space Development Agency and U.S. Ag Secretary Brooke Rollins. Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak joins to share insights on the farm bill, her first 100 days in Congress, and how she’s advocating for North Dakota on the national stage. We wrap up with Caryn Olson from Shields, who joins us for a fun breakdown of the 19th annual Fish Fest in Fargo, and Mark Wagner from ND Estate Services shares essential estate planning tips (plus his conversation with Kevin O’Leary 👀). A show full of faith, fishing, and future-forward policy! 🎯 Key Timestamps: 0:00 – Easter reflections and show intro 0:40 – Discussion on the passing of Pope Francis and what’s next 4:00 – Monsignor James Shea on Pope Francis’s legacy 24:00 – Chris Ruddy (Newsmax) shares analysis on Vatican transition and Church direction 37:00 – North Dakota defense and space updates, UND’s strategic role 55:00 – Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak on Secretary Rollins’ visit & farm bill progress 1:14:00 – Brooke Rollins’ visit schedule breakdown 1:26:00 – Estate planning insight with Mark Wagner + his Q&A with Kevin O’Leary 1:30:00 – Final reflections and wrap-up
