In this high-octane episode of What’s On Your Mind, hosts Scott Hennen and Kevin Flynn provide live coverage and fiery analysis of President Donald Trump’s press conference at the NATO summit in Turkey. Trump covers monumental ground—from massive leaps in U.S. manufacturing fueled by aggressive tariffs to pulling no punches against European allies and escalating tensions with Iran. Later in the show, Scott recaps his notes from a local data center town hall, debunking some "worst-case scenario" climate warrior claims, and the guys are joined by Joe Bergam to discuss a vibrant new public art unveiling in downtown Fargo.

Scott breaks down a local anti-data center town hall, laughing off wild claims made by "industrial hygienists" who alleged that data center noise causes horses to violently bang their heads against barn walls. - The Renaissance of Robert's Alley: Joe Bergam, co-founder of Folkways, joins the show to share the inspiration behind a new 30-foot…
