on Northwest Passages: Chelsea Cain

Tom, I'm not sure what you're referring to when you mention a recent series of 4 or 5 shows. All of our shows have been new (or "new, new, new!" as Dave says!) except for last week's program on Auctioneering. That being said we'll have another archive this Friday on Trust and Travel and one later next week too. So it is safe to assume we're new unless we tell you otherwise!

on More Topics on Think Out Loud?

Thank you! We certainly want to make sure there is still room for hour-long, in-depth conversations suitable of the name Think Out Loud. It is great to hear how important these are to valued community members. I expect at least once a week there will be just one topic for the whole hour... other days there may be two or three, depending upon how long they deserve.

on More Topics on Think Out Loud?

Thank you for your feedback. We certainly don't want to start covering frivolous topics. If anything we want to discuss more important things that are happening across the state and cover each topic for the time they deserve instead of always automatically an hour. That being said I totally understand what you say about the time substantive issues need -- it is definitely something we need to pay attention to as we move forward. Thank you so much! Keep the comments coming!

on Food Access

lolo and jacob, This really is not the place for this kind of back-and-forth. Please refrain from it in the future. Thank you.

on Complaining on FB

True, it was a "protected speech" not a "free speech" issue. Correction made.

on TOL Goes to the Zoo

I'd love to make some sort of Canadian joke now but really they're usually more about moose than elelphants. (And thanks to my colleague who corrected my typo!)

on The Reality of Guns

Help me out with this one, Gereng... Presuming you pass the background check it isn’t illegal to own a gun in Oregon. What is your concern?

on Football!

Sorry about that Tom! We actually will be talking about what it means to be a champion as well. I'll add that back in!

on The 2010 Election Divide

Penny, the partnership was actually with Fox 12 — a local cable news network that is owned by the Meredith Corporation, not Murdoch. The partnership is described on Fox 12's site here http://www.kptv.com/yourvote/26002932/detail.html and the poll was actually conducted by the firm Davis, Hibbitts & Midghall. Thanks for keeping us on our toes!

BrownsvilleJohn, I have sent you an email about this and will be happy to discuss it offline.

Thank you.

on Fandom

Malcolm, sorry you feel that way. We try to hit a good balance of social policy, politics, business, healthcare, law, environment, culture, education and (yes, occasionally) sports. Tune in tomorrow and we'll be back to something of arguably greater consequence. Though I would say this upcoming game is pretty consequential to a lot of people here!

on Bagby Hot Springs

You're right, Tom! I've deleted the spam from today but am sure more will appear in the future! At least people know how to get "new Rolex watches!"

on Public Transit

Matt, thank you for your suggestion. It is a bit late for me to book one of those guests, but I would certainly welcome their viewpoint — or any other critics — if they call in.

Vitalpac, please refrain from continued personal attacks. You are well aware that this is not the kind of dialogue we're interested in at Think Out Loud.

on The A&O Cluster

A great question, Jerry. Patrick Quinton from the PDC has left now, but I'll try to get an answer for you after the show.

ebsteward -- are you part of the snowboarding industry? If so, does it make a difference to your business that you're in the same town as Nike, Adidas, etc?

on A Different Spin on Thanksgiving

This does sound like a great idea! I can't promise a Thanksgiving feast, but if you'd like a TOL Contributors event I'd be happy to plan one!

Kwestwind, I'll see if we can get it from Ivy for you!
