(Airdate: December 5, 2024) This week, Jim Burke and co-host Commissioner Greg Brotherton welcome District 2 Commissioner-elect Heather Dudley-Nolette. They discuss several of the many boards and commissions that the Commissioner-elect will be serving on when she assumes office.
Taylor Clark and John Mauro welcomed Chimacum Schools Superintendent Dr. Scott Mauk. We had an interesting discussion about change management – the process of having a vision of the future and then encouraging a good faith dialogue about what changes might be needed to move in that direction.
Each month KPTZ’s Chris Bricker and co-host Siobhan Canty, President & CEO of Jefferson Community Foundation, explore new paradigms and new developments surrounding our County’s good people doing good work. This is the time of year when it’s always good to highlight some our community’s needs, especially in terms of advocacy. Chris and Siobhan speak with Elsa Goits from Foster Care Support of Jefferson County, with Jean Pepper from the P.U.D.’s Rainy Day Fund, and with our dear friends from Jefferson County Immigrants Rights Advocates. We’ll also talk about the importance of the Give Jefferson Campaign as a way to support local direct service organizations.

(Airdate: December 3, 2024) We’re in Gansu Province in the town of Wuwei, visiting the tomb where China’s famous Bronze Horse was discovered in 1969. It’s no coincidence that such a beautiful piece of sculpture was buried here. The horse was the key to military operations on the Silk Road, and it turns out that the Wuwei area is still one of China’s major horse racing centers. The camel may have carried the bulk of merchandise, but the horse carried those who sought to maintain control of the road.
