State Senator Mary Kunesh joins Robert Pilot to walk through a vital set of bills designed to sharpen domestic violence laws and ensure suspicious deaths in our communities are finally getting the thorough investigations they deserve. We also get a soulful trip down memory lane with Bob Blake, who opens up about his time working for the “Purple One” himself and how Prince’s legendary work ethic and love for Minnesota left a permanent mark on the Twin Cities. To bring it all home, Bob dives into some tricky new solar trade duties before the crew catches up on the latest from the Timberwolves, Wild, and Vikings.

Robert Pilot is diving deep into the recent Senate vote that threatens the Boundary Waters and talking with State Senator Mary Kunesh about the urgent need for “Prove It First” mining legislation.

Plus, Bob Blake joins the conversation to remind us why protecting our natural resources from toxic mining is a fight we can’t afford to lose.
