Thursday the state saw a wave of school threats. We heard how even unfounded threats have an impact on student wellbeing.

And as the final person killed in the tragedy at Park Tavern is memorialized Thursday, we discussed how to prevent future drinking and driving tragedies.

Olympic swimmer Regan Smith is back in town from Paris with five medals and a world record to boot. She talked with MPR News about her whirlwind summer.

A State Fair Grandstand concert fan had a message for the millions of people who helped her in a new Thank You, Stranger segment.

And a country rock icon was here! Humbird joined to talk about her new album and tour.

Our Minnesota Music Minute was “May” by Humbird and our Song of the Day was “You Were Born” by Cloud Cult.
