GUEST: Republican candidate for WA governor, Dr. Raul Garcia, makes for one heck of a unique opponent for Gov. Inslee, Dr. Garcia's an ER doctor from Tri-Cities, he practices in Yakima which has some of the worst COVID-19 infection rates in WA, for WA State Governor, he gives Inslee a C- grade for his virus pandemic response, cites Costco example of staying open and preventing virus spread, shares a story of growing up in Cuba and having the government confiscate his family's farm, balancing health and business/jobs in the virus pandemic; KVI's Lars Larson analyzes the tax hike just approved on high income earners in the Portland OR metro to pay for wide array of homeless services, but the question arises: how do you help these folks in dire straits who routinely decline help?

Inslee close the Army field hospital on April 11th (at Seahawks Stadium exhibition center) but only this week decided to allow elective surgeries (which coincided with UW Medicine furloughing 1500 workers because of lost revenues)?, another "Inslee inmate" arrested after receiving early release and this time its for attacking a woman in Everett park, oh and the man admits to being on meth for 14 days,

GUEST: former KOMO radio assistant news director, Mike Hamilton, explains why he jumped in an airplane to cover the Mt. St. Helens eruption 40 years ago today, Hamilton says they probably flew too close to the massive ash plume, how the hot ash created "constant lightning" flashes over the mountain; 25 of WA's 39 counties have 3 or fewer COVID-19 deaths so far, so why is most of the state still in Phase 1?, Producer Phil's Friday experience of being told to leave a Seattle city park by a parks official and a total of four families refused to leave after the advisory.
