Singer, songwriter Rachael Kilgour, of Duluth, recently released her newest album Rabbit in the Road, which is made up of pieces following her 2014 divorce.

Kilgour shares her creative process, how music and songwriting has been therapeutic for her, and how she now sees her very personal and confessional album in a new light and perhaps a bit of a political statement.

Kilgour will be back in Duluth on Sunday, March 19, for her album release at Teatro Zuccone at 7 p.m. 

You can watch and listen to her playing her title track at duluthnewstribune.com.

A new BBQ restaurant, a popular brewery, a well-respected bakery and much more.

Fun, exciting and delicious things are happening in a neighborhood of Duluth that hasn't always been known for being an inviting place to hang out.

Shannon Laing with Ecolibrium3 visits the podcast this week to talk about the revitalization of Lincoln Park.

What we are into this week: Journalism race between the New York Times and the Washington Post, waking up earlier, secret salad Facebook groups, and knitting protest hats.

It's the most wonderful time of the year in Minnesota - prep hockey playoffs. 

Section 7A and 7AA finals are today, Wednesday, March 1, and Thursday, March 2, respectively. Designated newsroom hockey fanatic John Myers and prep sports reporter Louie St. George III join us on this week's podcast to talk about those games and the possible outcomes of this year's state tournament. 

Even if you aren't a hockey superfan, you can't deny getting wrapped up in the excitement at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul. At the very least you tune into the starting lineups to see the hockey hair flowing from underneath the players helmets. 

We want to hear from you. Email us your feedback at podcast@duluthnews.com
