Nelu also speaks about her decision in 2020 to rename it (formerly Yas Kween) you can read her instagram post about that decision here.

We are not certain exactly when this interview aired on WGTD. The best guess of one of the guests in the interview is that is occurred in 2003. The topic is Rosie the Riveter- a symbolic character representing the many women who worked in America's industrial factories during World War Two while so many men were off fighting. The occasion of this interview was a local screening of a documentary about such women. The three guests: Dr. Fran Kavenik, Jane Harrington Heide, and Joyce Hill Westerman. Ms. Westerman was an actual 'Rosie the Riveter.'
On this week's episode, former striker Bryan Roy sings the 'Rosie and Jim' theme song and reveals a request to be a Forest godfather 24 years ago.
