No, You Can't Bet On Your Own Election. Plus, Peace Prize for the Black Hart
It's Friday, so we're celebrating some Twin Cities Wins with vocalist and contributor PaviElle French. We also chat with Wes Burdine, owner of the Black Hart of St. Paul, about a peace prize he was recently awarded by a German soccer club and how he saw the Midway neighborhood stand together during Operation Metro Surge.
