Marshall Helmberger is our regular guest on the Friday Morning Show. Marshall is editor and publisher of the Timberjay newspaper, serving northestern Minnesota. This morning he talked with Northern Community Radio's News and Public Affairs Director, Heidi Holtan, about this "head spinning" week.
In this episode, Marshall and Heidi discuss the end of sports, the unprecedented economic impacts of Covid-19, Twin Metals, and the Ely City Council's response to the boycott of Fortune Bay Casino and other Native American-owned businesses in the area.
Marshall says this is a week that we will remember for our whole lives. He makes the case for physical instead of social distancing. He also suggests we get outside and look for SNOW FLEAS! Full story below.
