Hey Pickles!

We hope this finds you well.

Here’s what’s coming up in today’s show!

In this week’s Y Files, we’ll tell you about a recently discovered hamster sized mammal that lived along side dinosaurs & could be a link to the mammals of today!

In our Noteworthy segment, The Sportsman’s Alliance is claiming a major win in the passing of the most recent language in the Farm Bill. We’ll tell you why they’re celebrating.
