Yap at the Tap 2: The Perfect Storm

Happy 50th episode, listeners! In this special St. Patrick's Day-themed episode, we reprise our popular segment, "Yap at the Tap," where we sit down with Canby Mayor Brian Hodson at the FOB Taproom to discuss pressing city business. In this edition, we talk about the "perfect storm" of retirements, as a number of longtime city employees and other pillars of the community are retiring in the coming year. We ask which newly elected city councilor is responsible for the mass exodus. Happy St. Paddy's Day!

Episode 49: Oorah!

The decision to join the United States military is often a personal one. You're lucky if you wind up in boot camp with someone from the same state, let alone the same city. Well, today, we're bringing you the story of four brand new Marines from right here in Canby. They'll tell us about how they got their nicknames and why they decided to serve. Spoiler alert: Full Metal Jacket was not a huge factor.

Episode 46: The Gift of Time

Imagine you're an expectant parent. The big day finally comes, but the unimaginable happens. Your baby never makes it home from the hospital. Stillbirths are experienced by thousands of mothers every year, and for many families, the pain never truly goes away.
When tragedy like this strikes, more and more midwives, bereavement counselors and psychologists are recommending the use of a refrigerated bassinet like the Cuddle Cot, which allows the families the time and space to grieve their loss. In this episode, we meet Maryssa Yager, a local woman whose goal is to place Cuddle Cots at every hospital in Oregon.

Episode 43: Truth or Dairy

It's a classic tale as old as America itself, the story of a boy and his beloved pet...cow? OK, maybe it's not that common, but then again, Canby's TMK Creamery is not your average farm. Todd Koch joins to tell us about what makes their small, family-run, vertically integrated operation unique, and even lets us try some of their amazing cheeses! Obviously. Did you really think we weren't going to milk this opportunity for all it's worth?

Episode 42: Mrs. Drazan Goes to Salem

If you're like us, you've started hearing the words “cap and trade” a lot, and were excited that trading bottle caps was becoming a thing again. Canby's new state representative, Christine Drazan, comes on the show to explain what it actually means, and why it concerns her.
