Some people they like to go out dancin', and other people they have to work...

It's an annual tradition for the Northern Alliance Radio Network to broadcast live from the MN State Fair. As such, my radio program The Closer will be live from 1:00 until 3:00 PM Central Time.

The guest-a-palooza includes: 

• Rebekka Paskewitz, who this past Wednesday was crowned the 65th Princess Kay of the Milky Way. 
• MN Republican candidate for governor Jeff Johnson. 
• Bill Budd, who is a manger with AM 1280 The Patriot's fantastic new sponsor AC Nelsen RV World - Shakopee. 

Then starting at 2:30 I will be hosting our second annual edition of the game show Real News or The Onion. What this entails is I will read a headline and a few paragraphs of a story and the on-site contestants will have to tell me if it's real news or something from the satirical web site The Onion. 

If you happen to be out at the Fair today, feel free to stop by and say hello. We're located on Machinery Hill, which is at the north end of the fairgrounds, specifically near the corner of Underwood Street & Murphy Avenue (next door to the big orange Home Depot building; see map here).

You can listen live in the Twin Cities at AM 1280 (or FM 107.5 in the  West Metro) 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.

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

Until then.....
