In the mood for a drive? Before you head out on your next road trip - we find a couple places worth stopping for. We’ve got the essential guide for casual Timberwolves fans and we find out what’s stinking up some northern lakeshores. Plus five years later, the facts of George Floyd’s murder remain the same, but some are changing the story. We’ll find out more.

 

Read more about the Timberwolves bandwagon, piles of carp, best tourist traps, and revisionist history.

 

This week our guests are sports editor Ryan Kostecka, features reporter Rachel Hutton, outdoor reporter Alex Chhith, Minneapolis crime and policing reporter Andy Mannix and breaking news, crime and corrections reporter Liz Sawyer.
