In Other News | March 2026

Our March show starts off with an interview with Gwyneth Eggleston, a youth ambassador with the Anchorage Assembly, about a resolution passed to encourage youth voting (06:52). Then we chat with Kass Smiley and Ida Taylor about the B4UDIE Comedy Festival happening in cities across Alaska from March 26th through April 4th, and they joke about their big "sponsor," which appears not to acknowledge the festival in any way, much less fund or endorse it (19:22). From the Anchorage Community Theater's production of "Marvel," director Mary Giles and lead actor Naomi Taymen talk about the story of Alaska's first female aviator, Mary Crosson (43:53). And the show rounds out with some trivia to recognize Women's History Month (54:44).

Hosts: Rhys James and Wren Crockett

Producer: Kaylee LaTocha
