S6 E5 - Wait... There's a Bob Marley Committee?!

Hi Listen Local Fam! It has been BUSY in the BLA! On this episode Isaiah and Jacob recap the past week, which include stories from the Extravaganza (and Jacob going on a little rant about crazy "keyboard warriors" that threaten Volunteers), a quick note on Winterfest and a WINTER STORM that has given the snowmobilers some fresh powder. Also, yes... the title says it all... while a 'quick' call to Mayor Tyler to discuss how someone decided to use his home driveway and yard as a thru street turned into a serious conversation on the City of Pequot Lakes' plan for Legalized Cannabis Sales. That committee at the City is known as the Bob Marley Committee. So tune in to hear all about that, plus a ton more on this entertaining episode of the Listen Local Podcast! And as always... Thanks to our sponsors Pequot Lakes and Gull Lake Sanitation, Hanneken Insurance, Hills Detailing Center, Craguns Legacy Courses and our NEW Presenting Sponsor Lakes Area CPAs!

S6 E4 - Local Legend Dave Guenther

Welcome back to another week of the Listen Local Podcast! We have a show full of stories, memories and more involving the BLA. Our guest today is Legendary Teacher, Snowmobiler Hall of Famer, Award winning Track Coach, and overall great guy, Dave Guenther. Trust us... There are many more titles we could add before his name, but in all honesty, he was one of the best teachers ever at Pequot Lakes High School. He and the crew (who all had Guenther as a teacher) reminisce on times at PLHS and man were there stories. After all of the PLHS talk, he dives into the snowmobile part of the show. From bringing the Antique Snowmobile Club of America to the Lakes Area to becoming one of the faces of the Minnesota snowmobile industry, Guenther hits on it all. On that note, he mentions other local recognizable snowmobile names like Sturm, Hibbert, Olson and more! Plus, A SUPER BUSY weekend in the BRAINERD LAKES AREA! Just wayyyy too much to type out so tune in to hear it all. And as always... Thanks to our sponsors Pequot Lakes and Gull Lake Sanitation, Hanneken Insurance, Hills Detailing Center, Craguns Legacy Courses and our NEW Presenting Sponsor Lakes Area CPAs!

S5 E47 - SKOL w/ Chad Greenway and Perk

Hi everyone and HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! On this final episode of 2024 the Listen Local crew goes BIG and talks all things Vikings with a former Vikings Pro Bowl Linebacker and a long-time Twin Cities Sports Director! With the Vikings beating the Packers this past weekend, they now head to Detroit in arguably not only the biggest regular season game in franchise history, but also in NFL History. Both teams are 14 and 2 and the winner of this Sunday's game against the Lions will be the number 1 seed and will have Home Field advantage throughout the playoffs. Vikings games mean so much to so many people and businesses around the BLA and all over MN, which is why the crew wanted to have this Vikings-centric show. The first guest on today's show is none other than former KARE 11 Sports Director Eric Perkins to talk about not only this year's team, but also reminisce on past seasons. Perk also tells the crew what some of his favorite memories cover the Vikings are. After Perk, Vikings Legend Chad Greenway joined the show. Chad, who had been on the show in the past, talks with Isaiah and Jacob for quite some time about everything from his thoughts on how far this year's team can go, to similarities he sees between them and the '09 team he was on that made it to the Conference Finals, to thoughts on coaching and culture. Before we let Chad go we had to talk to him about what it is like being a fan now of his daughters who are some of the best high school basketball players in the State. He also chats about his partnership with Ziegler Cat and running his hobby farm. As always, thanks to Chad for joining and Skol Vikes! Lastly... THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF OUR LISTENERS IN 2024! CAN'T WAIT FOR 2025 And to our sponsors... Hanneken Insurance, Lakes Area CPAs, Hills Detailing Center, Posture Pro Chiropractic, Craguns Legacy Courses and Tyler Gardner with Pequot Lakes and Gull Lake Sanitation, we couldn't do it without ya!
