The Kindness Chronicles

We visit with a remarkable person, Pediatric Cardiologist Dr. Shanti Narasimhan. A University of Minnesota Professor, Heart Doctor at Masonic Children's Hospital and volunteer for Children's Heartlink traveling to Brazil and India on mission trips providing cardiac care to underserved children. Amazing person!

We return to Willow Lane Elementary and visit with a group incredibly ambitious and kind 4th graders and hear about their "Minnow Tank" Program.

Anthony LaPanta joins us to talk family, friends and food (and not necessarily in that order) and his personal Mt. Rushmore of local  "good guys" he has encountered in the professional sports world.

BOO! While John's sarcasm gets a bit exhausting in this Halloween preview, the KC Crew discuss KG's Wild travel (packing for 12 days), Steve's favorite scary movies (no one has ever heard of) and John shares a ghost story from his days on the St. Joe's Hospital psych ward...as an employee, not a patient. 

We discuss a unique program that brings hockey to children in the heart of  Minneapolis and St. Paul , DINOMIGHTS. We visit with Impact Hockey owner and DINOMIGHTS Volunteer, Eric Johnson (Self described Johnny Clueless fan, Kevin Gorg admirer and complete stranger to John Schwietz.)

The KC Crew discusses a variety of topics from Hurricane Helene to Customer Service recognition. Steve offers a new KC Challenge...Support the Arts. (Apparently Culinary Arts don't count) :( 

We enjoy a chat with legendary St. Paul Pioneer Press Columnist,  former Minnesota Twin and all-around great guy Charley Walters

Crossover event with Minnesota Masonic Histories and Mysteries. We visit with Shawn Kor, Executive Director of Eagle's Healing Nest.

We take a few moments to reflect on some of the "light" that came out of one of the darkest days in US history, September 11, 2001.
