Alberta's ban on renewable power projects on prime agricultural land is slowing renewable growth in Canada while the financial struggles of Sweden's wind power industry are confounding. Avangrid is building a brand new wind and solar technician training center in Oregon to grow their technician base. Plus, Santa Rita East is our Wind Farm of the Week!. Join us as we explore these topics and more, diving into the challenges and opportunities facing the wind energy sector.

Allen Hall: So there's a big change in Philadelphia, guys. The Philadelphia Phillies are dropping their dollar dog night. I know, and I know you're all heartbroken by this, but they've had some recent outbursts at these games. So when you can buy a hot dog for a dollar, like hot dog is only a dollar. They tend to buy a couple extra hot dogs and start slinging them one another in the stands.
Joel Saxum: That's Philadelphia. Stay out of Philadelphia sports games.
Allen Hall: But they're not getting rid of it altogether. They're just getting rid of the dollar dog night. Now they're doing a two for one deal. So now the Phillies are going to make money while they sling these hot dogs at one another. And so they're trying to increase profits without really changing the outcome.
I don't think. And as we get closer to baseball season and spring training is going on right now in Arizona and down in Florida there's a really odd set of changes happening this year, and this is one of them. It's Phil, you remember Disco Demolition Night in Chicago way back when with a, Try to burn all those disco records.
And it went haywire. Those were the days. And for some of these marketing ideas never die, right?
Philip Totaro: It was in 1978. I wasn't born yet.
Allen Hall: Was Rick James, right? We neighbor at that point?
Philip Totaro: Yes. Yes, he was.
Joel Saxum: Those were his records.
Allen Hall: Yeah. That was probably some of Rick James's records and that disco demolition night.
But baseball has been notorious for having these wild promotions that end up to some sort of catastrophic outcome. But it's like. The bats, wasn't it the bats at the Mets game or the New York Yankees game? They handed out those small bats and everybody started beating each other up with them.
Yeah. It's almost like the hooliganism and the quote unquote soccer matches or football matches that used to happen in the UK all the time.
Philip Totaro: Oh, it still happens.
Allen Hall: A little bit, but not nearly as much. But in the meantime, baseball tends to be one of the more rowdy sports. It's and Philadelphia has been one of the more energetic fan bases, I'll call it for a while.
Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia used to have, the football stadium used to have a jail on the bottom of it for rowdy Eagles fans.
Joel Saxum: The worst sporting event I've ever been to. A Eagles game in Philadelphia. It was horrible. People were throwing snowballs at us and like pouring beers on us and stuff. I was like, what is wrong with you people?
