One Ogden

Clesh has been making music since he was 15, and he's worked with a ton of great local artists. He and Earthworm make some of the best hip hop around, so I talk to him about his process and passion and we just have a good old time. 

When he was young he helped his dad start a business that has grown into something huge. He's got his own philosophies on managing, learning, and mentorship, and he's always looking for new ways to apply them. Come along for the ride on this one!

The Junior League of Ogden has been bringing women together to serve their community for over 100 years. Heather Dunifer is the new President, and we talk all about their mission, how they do business, and some of their big projects like Oasis Community Garden and the Junior Junior League.

You might have heard of Ben Nadolski because he's a city council member, but also he's running to be Ogden mayor, so it's a good time to get to know him if you haven't already. Plus I ask him about the bird refuge, union station, the city's relationship with developers, the arts and homelessness, so listen now before you die from anticipation. 

P.S. Happy Juneteenth you frickin history buffs!

Catherine Price was the Garden Manager at Oasis Community Garden, so we talk a lot about that and the services they provide.
