- We discuss some of the biggest stories of the week with our news roundtable including: John Kasich and Ted Cruz's approach to the Oregon and Indiana primaries; sponsors backing off of a liquor privatization measure to focus on opposing the gross receipts tax instead; and the Blazers' unlikely road to the playoffs. This week's guests are Lisa Bates, Anna Griffin and Kerry Tymchuck.
- OPB reporter Conrad Wilson brings us a story about an Oregon man who was discharged from the military after being the victim of a sexual assault. And we'll learn about a new investigation that found the Pentagon misled Congress when they testified against a bill that would change the way the military investigates sexual assaults.
- High school student Mitchell Lenneville is headed to Washington, D.C., to compete with students from all around the country in something that might not seem competitive at all: reciting poetry.
