Yatika Starr Fields, 2025. Portrait © Tom Fields 2025 Born in 1980 in Tulsa, Yatika Starr Fields is a member of the Cherokee, Creek and Osage tribes, as well as a member of the Bear Clan. Yatika Fields studied landscape painting at the University of Oklahoma's Sienna, Italy summer program before enrolling at the Art Institute of Boston from 2001 to 2004. While living on the East Coast, the artist developed a keen interest in street art. His dynamic, vibrant graffiti works quickly attracted attention, generating public and private mural commissions across the country from Portland to Oklahoma City, Phoenix, Santa Fe, and Bentonville. In 2018, he completed Astonishment of Perception, a monumental site-specific mural in downtown Bentonville, as part of Crystal Bridges Museum's Art for a New Understanding (2018–2019). Spanning the side of Cripps Law Firm's two-story building, the work depicts lady justice peeking from behind her blindfold, highlighting the dissonance between America's ideals and its judicial system in practice. Like many of Fields's works, the mural blends abstract and stylistic elements, figuration, and allegorical narrative, all in a dynamic, saturated Pop-palette. After joining the water protectors at the Dakota Access Pipeline in 2016, Fields began to give the Indigenous history of hope and struggle a greater focus in his work. In the 2017 series Tent Metaphor Standing Rock, the artist recovered tents after the infamous February 22, 2017 police raid on the protesters, sewing the recovered material into shapes resembling coffins, sleeping bags, or kites. Fields first worked with tents—a mainstay of middle-class camping holidays— after witnessing Seattle's brightly colored homeless encampments. His interest only increased after noticing the structure's role in modern protest movements. The artist recombines the vivid material into traditional Indigenous patterns, anti-pipeline slogans like “Stop the Black Snake,” and into dynamic, compelling abstract compositions. In its totality, the series blurs the boundaries between political polemic and abstraction, between distress, resistance, and hope. The painting, America Realized (2017), also memorializes the experience at Standing Rock. The composition is explosive: Torrents of ice and fire swirl through prayer ties and collapsing tents, recounting the freezing weather, police force, and fires that the activists braved at Oceti Sakowin, the central camp in Cannon Ball, North Dakota. A surveillance drone flies across the top of the expansive canvas packed with razor wire, floodlights, and debris. The scale of the 6- by-6-foot composition allows for Fields to replicate the embodied, fluid performance of mural and street art. As in graffiti works, Fields blurs the line between abstraction and representation, creating stylistic compositions out of recognizable elements, and setting them against dynamic, swirling fields of color and twisting forms. Fields has participated in over 43 solo and group exhibitions at venues across the United States and Europe, including: the Southern Plains Indian Museum, (2008, Anadarko, Oklahoma); Chiaroscuro Contemporary (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, Santa Fe); BlueRain Gallery (2015, 2016, 2018, Santa Fe); Peabody Essex Museum, (2015–2016, Salem, MA); Rainmaker Gallery (2017, Bristol, UK); the Grand Palais (2018, Paris); the Philbrook Museum (2018, Tulsa); the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art (Bentonville, 2019); and the Gilcrease Museum, (2019, Tulsa). Fields's paintings are featured in the collections of many museums across the country, including: the Heard Museum (Phoenix); the Hood Museum (Dartmouth College); Oklahoma State Museum of Art; the Peabody Essex Museum; and the Sam Noble Museum (University of Oklahoma).

As tariffs and global economic uncertainty weigh on businesses, Walmart EVP Dan Bartlett joins Mo News from the company's shareholders meeting in Bentonville to break down how the retail giant is navigating tariff and economic uncertainty.

Bush's former counselor and communications director and the lessons he learned about leadership and crisis.  —- Mosheh Oinounou (⁠⁠@mosheh⁠⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.

People will tell you this is just a mountain bike podcast, but we've never really been into lying to our listeners. This is a podshow, which is like a podcast, except it involves at least 27% more sarcasm, casual chaos, and potentially actionable advice. Is it the best thing you could fill your earholes with? Probably not. But you're already here, so either you lost a bet, your Spotify algorithm hates you, or you just crave the kind of content that lands us somewhere between regional fame and restraining orders. On this episode, we've wrangled Christian Peper into the studio, proving that with enough peer pressure, even smart people make bad decisions. Ready to feed your appetite for degeneracy, philosophical rants, and unfiltered mountain bike exploits, the Gnar Couch Podshow hits you with three pillars of questionable value: (1) the not-so-glamorous reality of mountain bike “fame”; (2) the serious business of Utah bike terrain—why we have more “blue square” mediocrity than Whistler-style gnar, and how local apathy, city governments, and suburban dads in jorts are possibly to blame; and (3) the unholy union of influencer culture and actual riding skill, where self-promotion, kid-adoption, and jumping over $4 million cars all intersect. So, whether you're here to learn why our new nicknames are shamefully NSFW, to figure out if Bentonville is overrated, or just want to join us in roasting each other's suspension settings, congratulations: you've found your people. Welcome to the podshow no one asked for—where wild animal instincts, actual family values, and questionable bike park activism all go to get roasted.

Discovering a hidden gem in Bentonville's flourishing culinary scene, we sit down with Rebecca Davitt, founder and head brewer of Stoic Brews, the only dedicated gluten-free brewery in Arkansas and one of just 27 nationwide. From the moment we take our first sip, preconceptions about gluten-free beer are shattered as we sample exceptional craft brews made from millet, buckwheat, and other alternative grains.Rebecca's journey into brewing began with her own health challenges. After being diagnosed with an inflammatory disorder that required eliminating gluten, she found herself unable to enjoy craft beer for nearly a decade. What started as a joke with her husband ("I'll only be interested in brewing if we can make it gluten-free") evolved into a passionate mission to create a space where everyone, regardless of dietary restrictions, could experience the joy of craft beer and good food without worry.The impact of Stoic Brews extends far beyond brewing great beer. Rebecca shares moving stories of customers brought to tears by their first beer in decades and the profound sense of normalcy her establishment provides to those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Located in downtown Bentonville's former Pedaler's Pub space, Stoic offers eight taps, a full gluten-free food menu (including incredible pizza we sampled on-air), and weekly events like bingo and trivia nights.What stands out most is the intersection of craft, care, and community that Rebecca has created. With both indoor seating and patios, sports viewing, and a family-friendly atmosphere that includes mocktails for non-drinkers, Stoic Brews is pioneering what an inclusive dining experience can be. Whether you're gluten-sensitive or simply a craft beer enthusiast, this alternative brewery deserves a spot on your Bentonville must-visit list. Follow them on social media @stoicbrews or visit stoicbrews.com to learn more about this revolutionary approach to brewing.

From touring rapper to barbershop owner, Mike Shelton's journey exemplifies the unpredictable path of entrepreneurship and the power of following your calling. When life threw him a curveball at age 34, learning that new cars wouldn't even have CD players for his music, he found himself at a crossroads. A moment of clarity on Highway 485 in Charlotte pointed him toward barber school, despite having a wife, young son, and mortgage to support.What unfolds is a remarkable story of faith and determination. Mike shares how he went from being the only white student at the all-Black owned No Grease Barber School to opening Uptown Barber Lounge in Bentonville. Starting in the back of a house and eventually growing to an 11-chair operation, his business philosophy challenges conventional thinking about competition."There's more people to cut than we can handle," Mike explains, rejecting the scarcity mindset that often pits similar businesses against each other. Instead, he embraces collaboration and community-building, recognizing that when an industry thrives, everyone within it benefits. This refreshing perspective resonates throughout the conversation as he describes the barbershop as much more than a place for haircuts. It's a sanctuary where authentic connections happen.The emotional depth of Mike's experience shines through as he recounts praying with clients, crying with grown men, and building relationships across social divides. "A barbershop will give you the pulse of what a community is like," he observes, highlighting how these spaces create neutral ground where CEOs and hourly workers become equals for 40 minutes in the chair.Whether you're contemplating a career change, running a small business, or simply appreciate authentic storytelling, Mike's journey offers wisdom about following your passion and serving others along the way. His story reminds us that sometimes the most fulfilling path emerges when you're willing to listen to that surprising inner voice telling you to try something completely new.Visit Uptown Barber Lounge at 502 Southwest 12th Street in Bentonville or check out uptownbarberlounge.com to experience this unique community hub for yourself.

Bartlett explains how Walmart is approaching increasing prices, how it's absorbing costs as President Trump tells them to “eat the tariffs,” and believes it will still “win on price.”  Bartlett dives into how the world's largest private employer and America's largest grocer is looking at the future.

Bush's former counselor and communications director and the lessons he learned about leadership and crisis.  —- Mosheh Oinounou (⁠@mosheh⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.
