Several people are sick with E. coli from store-bought carrots that have been recalled in 18 states, including Minnesota. Other recent cases are linked to burgers from three metro-area restaurants. We talk with an expert in foodborne illness about how to stay healthy.

A new clinic is working to help people who are seeking asylum in the U.S. get medical evidence that can help their cases.

And we hear the latest in our series, “Connect the Dots,” where Minnesota elders share stories and lessons from their lives. This time, an economist and former competitive ballroom dancer who cares a lot about early childhood education.

Plus, in sports news, one Minnesota high school is going to the state championship for the first time in nearly 40 years.

Our Minnesota Music Minute was “Somethin’ Somethin’” by King Pari and our Song of the Day was “John Saw that Number” by Neko Case.
