Meter and The Coach – March Madness Day 3 Recap – 3-24-2024

The last time we spoke with Chief Darrell Waldron, Executive Director of the RI Indian Council, he was hopeful for the passing of legislation recognizing Native American Tribes in Rhode Island. It's been three years since the initial request and still no steps have advanced. This is a RI only issue, as other states in this imperfect union, have appropriately considered and approved such legislation. It's quizzical that this New England colonized land, adorned with Native American named landmarks, is so opposed to tribal recognition. Listen as Chief Waldron explains their struggle and how we can help advance the issue of state recognition. Since 1975, The RI Indian Council has been actively supporting Native communities. Their mission is to empower Native people by providing job training, education assistance, and promoting meaningful employment. While the state of RI isn't exactly supportive, the federal government has been a valued partner in addressing Native American issues. Additionally, Chief Waldron sits on the National Advisory Board for the Division of Indian and Native American Programs for the U.S. Department of Labor and advises on the economic programs and improvements needed for Native people.

Tucker & Kichen – Rapid Fire Producer Questions – 4-27-2024

Ben Kichen and Tucker Silva (@TuckSilva) Don’t feel great with the Bruins being up 2-1 right now, didn’t feel great after watching the first two periods of game three, the pressure is going to be on the Maple leafs tonight, if the Bruins go up 3-1 tonight the season is over, if ulmark loses tonight does that mean they should stop the goalie rotation, the injury list is laughable for the red sox, hopefully Red Sox don’t get swept by the cubs.
