  • My First Concert

    “My First Concert” is a great show part of the Talk North Network. Have listen to all of them. After listening to Paul Charchian. We need a list of all the Bands Paul talked about. We need the Band list over playlist. Need that too on “Chin Music” when they talk about songs or Bands. Like listening on my Runs or Walks.

    I love the show with LaVelle and Roy. Get rid of the music talk. That’s not why we listen to podcast.

  • Race

    John and Jim bring race into many stories. Why does John even have to mention race with a African American qualifying for the state speech event. She is a gifted speech participant it doesn’t need to be qualified with her race. Her skin color has nothing to do with her accomplishment. Every time you mention race you cause more division.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Flush: Ep 330 – Ruffed Grouse & Woodcock Forest Reports
Q: How does habitat affect the rough grouse cycle and hatch variability, according to the guests?
The guests emphasize that the traditional eight to eleven-year cycle is largely influenced by hatch success and recruitment, with habitat quality, moisture, and food availability shaping brood survival; well-managed forests and diverse age classes help stabilize populations, reducing the perceived extremes of the cycle.
The Flush: Ep 330 – Ruffed Grouse & Woodcock Forest Reports
Q: What can Minnesota rough grouse hunters expect this fall when they head into the forest?
Bailey and the crew suggest cautious optimism: good habitat and recent hatch in many areas point to broods in the woods, but results will be uneven across covers, with some places showing strong pockets of birds while others lag, so hunters should be flexible, move with the dogs, and target moist, productive habitats.
Dawn of Sports with Dawn Mitchell & Jim Souhan - Vikings announcer Pete Bercich
Q: What's the role of media in covering a team during training camp and preseason?
Media must balance reporting with sensitivity to a team's internal decisions and avoid speculation, focusing on what coaches say publicly while understanding there are behind‑the‑scenes factors fans never see.
Dawn of Sports with Dawn Mitchell & Jim Souhan - Vikings announcer Pete Bercich
Q: What stands out about players who defy odds, like Jacob Thomas?
Their persistence and ability to play to their strengths in a system, along with intangible factors like temperament and work ethic, often determine whether they realize their NFL opportunity.
Dawn of Sports with Dawn Mitchell & Jim Souhan - Vikings announcer Pete Bercich
Q: How do you feel about the pressure of Cut Down Day and the decisions around keeping multiple quarterbacks?
The panel sees it as a necessary balance between evaluating talent and the strategic needs of the roster, acknowledging the risk of losing players to other teams but emphasizing the value of keeping potential contributors in the organization.
