Whether you kayak, canoe or paddleboard - or you want to - we’ll hear the best paddling routes to try in the Twin Cities metro. There’s a new show about a real-life Minnesota woman-cowboy-detective from the 1800s. Plus, why you should think “salvage” for home remodeling and the cost to raise a kid here.

Read more about “Whoa, Nellie!,” our ultimate paddling guide, salvaging for your home and how much it costs to raise a kid in Minnesota. 

This week our guests are built environment reporter Greta Kaul, theater critic Rohan Preston, Hennepin County reporter Christopher Magan and editor Emma Nelson.
