The Kindness Chronicles

The whole team PLUS Mario,the Intern are crammed in the  BUNK BED STUDIO for a fun chat with a sweet guy, (BK Kowalski) who wrote a sweet book about a sweet dog, Busco. The lessons learned are in lock step with our goal to give the world a dose of the Minnesota Nice that it desperately needs.

As the school year comes to a close, and young people contemplate their first-year college experience, we asked Syracuse Student and Podcast Host, Mario Esteb, to join us in studio to discuss the  rollercoaster experience that most college students experience as a first-year student. Also, we surprise Chanhassen High School Student and Football Player, Kameron Zurek, recipient of a 2023 Minnesota Masonic Charities Selfless Scholarship. He nominated teammate Tyler Smith and shares a bit about his special friendship with team manager, Wesley Parker.
