Monday, February 08, 2010– The Mindset of Taking Children: (listen)
The ten U.S. Christian missionaries who were charged with kidnapping in Haiti have stirred up memories and emotions in Native America. It was not so long ago that Christian missionaries preyed on Native children and took many of them against their will. Do you believe this group of Americans from the New Life Children’s Refuge in Idaho were doing God’s work when they were caught trying to smuggle 33 children out of earthquake devastated Haiti? Or do you think that they knew what they were doing was wrong? Should they be convicted of kidnapping? Open lines.

Tuesday, February 09, 2010–Privatizing Yellowstone Buffalo:
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks has decided to send 88 quarantined Yellowstone buffalo to the private lands of billionaire Ted Turner. Turner will keep the bison for five years and in return will get to keep 75 percent of the buffalo's offspring. Montana wildlife turned down requests from a Wyoming state park and the Fort Peck and Fort Belknap tribes for some of the buffalo. Is Montana setting a bad precedent of privatizing public wildlife? Are they showing disregard to tribes, or will the tribes benefit from this deal in the long run? Guests include Mike Mease of the Buffalo Field Campaign..

Wednesday, February 10, 2010– Molding the Governance Model:
For years now, Turtle Island's First Peoples have maintained models of governance that have been imposed on them. One community in Canada is attempting to break this mold and is pushing to use a new form of governance to fit their needs and remove themselves from being a parallel society. It includes paying taxes like any other citizen of Canada. Is it time to wipe the governance slate clean and start anew? How can this new model unlock them from the chains of dependency? Guests include Beverly Clifton Percival (Gixtsan), Negotiator/Gixtsan First Nations.

Thursday, February 11, 2010– Giants in the Mountains:
The Washington State History Museum recently opened an exhibit called "Giants in the Mountains: The Search for Sasquatch." The exhibit explores the Pacific Northwest region and its history and lore of the elusive Sasquatch. The museum looks at area tribal legends and masks for more information on the origins of Sasquatch and also takes a look at the mountain giant's influence on everything ranging from scientific investigations to hoaxes and pop culture. What is the true story of Sasquatch, or Bigfoot? Guests include Gwen Perkins, Co-Curator/Washington State History Museum.

Friday, February 12, 2010– First Loves:
Do you remember your first love? Now we don't mean to brew any animosity with your current honey and make your Valentine's Day a bust by asking this question. We think it would be fun to reminisce about the time in your life when you first fell in love. We want to hear about your first love! Do you have a warm and fuzzy memory of that person you'd like to share as Valentine’s Day approaches? Who dumped who? Were you lucky enough to have married your first love? We are opening up the lines to let the love flow.
