Good Luck Sweatshirt 
On the first day of King fishing season on the Kenai river, Jane Matthies-Holtan landed this 148 lbs monster (or was it 48 lbs?). Keith, her husband who took the picture (and Heidi's older brother), talked with Scott about how his salmon fishing-guide season has been on the Morning Show, click here to listen! Looks like things are going pretty good.

Gotta Have Faith...Boblett
This Thursday night at 6 on Centerstage MN Doug MacRostie is joined in-studio by singer/songwriter Faith Boblett from Outing. Just out of High School, Faith has a beautiful voice and she'll bring her guitar along for some live music! She is in a continuous process of writing music, releasing new material to her fans by posting home-recorded videos of new songs on her YouTube channel. Doug is really excited to have Faith on and hear her sing in person, and he'll try to get inside the head of an 18 year old songwriter. Read more here.
