Dave Overlund and I have similar backgrounds. We both grew up as big sports fans in Minnesota and pursued a career in sports broadcasting while studying at St. Cloud State University. Dave has stayed on that path, working in radio in St. Cloud for several years. 

In December, when St. Cloud State cut its football program, I took notice to an opinionated article Dave wrote about the sudden decision. It expressed a sentiment shared by many and called out some of the decision makers at the University.

Dave joined me for this conversation to discuss that fiasco now that nearly two months have passed. Plus we talk about St. Cloud itself, a city with changing demographics including many from Somalia.

Kobe Bryant died a few days before the recording so we spend a few minutes sharing our perspectives on him and the aftermath of his death.
