Take a roller coaster that comes in sideways......

Tune in to the May Day edition of the Northern Alliance Radio Network this afternoon. My 1-hour program The Closer kicks off at 2:00 Central Time.

Right at 2:00, I welcome to the broadcast Minnesota Republican state legislative candidate (and fellow Harding High School alum) Tracy Nelson of Little Canada. Tracy is looking to represent House District 42B, which covers Little Canada, Vadnais Heights, Gem Lake and parts of Roseville & Shoreview. 

Then at 2:30, longtime friend of the broadcast Julia Erynn will check in. As Miss Minneapolis 2014, Julia's platform was titled Out of the Darkness and into the Light: Stopping Suicide with Prevention. Although she's no longer a titleholder, Julia is still a staunch advocate for suicide prevention. As such, she will come on to promote two May fundraisers related to her cause. 

So please give me a call at (651) 289-4488 if you'd like to weigh in on any of the topics I plan on addressing. You can also text comments/questions to (651) 243-0390.

You can listen live in the Twin Cities at AM 1280 on your radio dial. In and out of the Minneapolis-St Paul area, you can listen to the program on the Internet by clicking this link, or check us out via iheart radio. 

Even though I have a face for radio, there is a UStream channel where you can watch the broadcast, if you so desire. Check it out here.  

And if you're so inclined, follow along on Twitter at #narn or "Like" our Facebook page.

Until then.....
