This past Saturday I was on Tulsa Beacon Weekend on KCFO AM 970 with Jeff Brucculeri mainly to talk about the upcoming June 16, 2026, primary election.

Jan Wilson Bost, an early-day Oklahoma City-based blogger known as the Happy Homemaker , died on May 11, 2026, at the age of 62. She was the recent recipient of a long-awaited heart transplant; a post-transplant infection took her life.

Kevin Dahlgren documents the world of the homeless in the Pacific Northwest. He regularly interviews people on the streets, posting to Truth on the Streets on Substack and on his X account .
