"The Minot State one took us by surprise," U.S. Rep. Julie Fedorchak told us on this episode of Plain Talk, referring to the cuts of nearly two dozen staff at the North Dakota Center for Persons with Disabilities. One of those workers, Kyle Erickson, who lives with cerebral palsy and not only works for the center but received services from it as a child, joined us to talk about the cuts on a previous episode of Plain Talk. "We found out about it in the newspaper, and we've been trying to get to the bottom of it, and I'm not sure that we have yet," Fedorchak said, expressing some mild frustration with how President Donald Trump's administration has been going about these cuts. "I do wish that some of the sudden cuts that are coming out, that the the administration is unleashing, would be a little bit more clear," she said. "That we'd have more heads up, that we understood the grand scheme and how these things are working out. What the big plan is, because I think that's what's hard. It's not having time to prepare for them. Or be thoughtful about them." "You know, if I was doing it, that's not how I would do it," Fedorchak continued, responding to a question about how DOGE and Elon Musk have presented their efficiency efforts to the public. "I would I would not talk about it this way, but I'm not in charge." Still, Fedorchak supports the overall effort. "In my opinion, we do need to be retracting and right-sizing the federal government," she said. "It isn't sustainable. There has been out of control spending and we have to correct that for ourselves and for the future citizens of our country." Fedorchak also pushed back on claims that Medicaid is being cut and that Republicans are pushing for tax cuts for the rich. She said the rate of growth in Medicaid spending is to be slowed, and that Republicans only want to renew existing tax policy. Also on this episode, Minot-based rapper Dakotah Faye performed his song '925,' discussed how he's managed his burgeoning career as a performing artist from North Dakota, and talked about his work with the F5 Project as someone who has struggled with addiction in the past. This episode is presented by Lignite Energy Council, an organization dedicated to protecting and enhancing the development of North Dakota's abundant lignite resources. Their goal is to maintain a viable lignite coal industry and support the generation of electricity, synthetic natural gas, and valuable byproducts.

Our new correspondent Blayne Alexander is back, and even though she doesn't have an official nickname yet, we are for sure proud Blayniacs! When a beloved young college student is killed, there are a surprising number of suspects: The maintenance man from her building? The guy she was flirting with whose last name is also the creepiest vehicle on the road? Her high school prom date who was obsessed with her and is inserting himself into the case? A troubled teen phrogger? Was it The Running Man (AKA Arnold Schwarzeneger or MC Hammer, or both in it together)? Or was it the ghost of an aquarium fish, out for revenge? Nothing is adding up, and this case goes cold. But there's no case too cold for queen of the pencil metaphors, prosecutor Kelly Siegler from TV's Cold Justice! It's MURDER IN MINOT! Official Description from NBCU: Beloved 18-year-old college student Anita Knutson is found stabbed to death in her apartment; the case takes nearly eighteen years and the undying commitment of friends, family and investigators to reach resolution.

David and Brad dissect Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin spectacle featuring an all-female crew of “astronauts” in form-fitting space suits and Katie Perry kissing the ground after an 11-minute joyride in an undeniably phallic spacecraft. Then comes the irony of New York Attorney General Letitia James—who pursued Trump on property valuation charges—now facing similar accusations of falsifying loan applications and listing her father as her husband. The episode wraps with the cautionary tale of Minot, North Dakota's mayor, whose personal 'rocket launch' video accidentally landed in his city attorney's inbox—proving once again that incompetence knows no political boundary. All this plus squirrel beheadings, Disney cruises, and George Michael appreciation.

Although Ahithophel's counsel to seek to destroy only David's life is sound, the LORD defeats this counsel through Hushai's shrewd words to Absalom. David's allies in Jerusalem manage to get news to David so that he is able to avoid Absalom's plan, leading Ahithophel to take his own life. As the two sides draw up for battle, David's allies strengthen him in the wilderness.  Rev. Rick Jones, Chaplain and Vice President of Spiritual Life at the Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch in Minot, ND, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study 2 Samuel 17:1-29.  "A Kingdom Unlike All the Nations” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through 1-2 Samuel. This time in Israel's history has its highs and lows, but the LORD's faithfulness never wavers. He provides His Word to be proclaimed faithfully through prophets like Samuel and Nathan. Even as princes like Saul and David sit on an earthly throne, the LORD remains King over His people, even as He does now and forever through the Lord Jesus Christ. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

For tonight's episode, we meet Sarge in Idaho. Sarge brings us a firsthand account that has stayed under wraps for far too long. Picture this: a quiet spring night in 2010 at Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota—a critical hub for nuclear security. Out of nowhere, UFOs appear—silent, precise, and unlike anything witnesses had ever seen before. These crafts maneuver over the base for exactly one hour, silently observing before vanishing into the night sky. But the story doesn't end there. The very next night, a large reconnaissance plane appears, circling the base at the exact same time the UFOs had the night before. It lingers for several hours before disappearing without a trace. We'll hear from Sarge, who was on duty that night and was one of multiple witnesses to this extraordinary event. And there's more—back in October 1968, at the same Air Force base, ground-based personnel reported seeing a glowing object hovering near the missile sites. It was described as extremely bright, with rapidly shifting colors. A B-52 bomber crew returning to base that night also reported visual contact with a similar object. The incident was investigated under Project Blue Book, the official U.S. Air Force program tasked with evaluating UFO reports.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-330-the-minot-encounter-one-hour-of-silence/If you enjoy this podcast, please support the show with a virtual coffee:https://ko-fi.com/ufochroniclespodcastFollow and Subscribe on X to get ad free episodesX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcast/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

Fun fact: Sara's sister is married to Stephen's brother -- so Sara and Stephen are basically in-law...in-laws (or something like that). Sara recently published her first book -- Leading Spiritual Hoarders. In this episode, we talk about the importance of being a disciple who makes disciples. We talk about how people become spiritual hoarders by keeping the good news about Jesus to themselves instead of sharing it with others. Sara shares practical advice, like creating a list of 100 people you see throughout a typical week -- to determine if they are following Jesus, not a a follower, or unknown -- in order to be intentional with conversations.

Dr. Brian Jenks is a weed scientist at North Dakota State University based in Minot. Jenks has been in this role since 1997 and over that time he has seen an alarming rise in resistance to many of our herbicides from certain weeds, especially in kochia. In this episode, Jenks shares about the latest in kochia management including what's working and not working, which products have built up resistance and which products are still effective. We also talk about a few other key weeds like palmer amaranth, wild oat and green foxtail. “ And if there's anybody listening who's thinking about using Tough on lentil, please call me before you use it because there's some things that you need to know. I mean just reading the label, you're not going to have sufficient information because all they say on there is spray 6 to 20 ounces and oh, by the way, you can tank mix with Metribuzin. Well, that is a recipe for potential disaster if you do that. Because we need to talk rates, we need to talk timing, we need to talk adjuvants, and I'm encouraging growers to do this only as a last resort because you will see severe injury.” - Dr. Brian JenksThis Week on Growing Pulse Crops:Meet Dr. Brian Jenks, a weed scientist at North Dakota State University based in Minot, NDDiscover the rising risk of herbicide resistance in weed management especially with the weed kochiaLearn the process to evaluate the type of kochia resistance producers may be facing and how to get that service for freeUnderstand the significance of a weed being on the noxious weed list and the impact that has on producersContact Dr. Brian Jenks with any of your weed biology or herbicide questions at (701) 857-7677Growing Pulse Crops is produced by Dr. Audrey Kalil and hosted by Tim Hammerich of the Future of Agriculture Podcast.

George Haneckeyk was born in Denmark in 1886 and came to North Dakota in 1910. In 1916, he had a run-in with the law when he attacked and tried to kill a girl in Minot. He was found guilty and sentenced to three and a half years in prison. After being discharged in 1918, he opened a painting shop in Bismarck. It seemed he had changed. He was a quiet man who kept to himself and caused no trouble. He did some painting at the police office and even became friends with some officers. While he was never a police officer, he was occasionally sworn in to assist the department when extra help was needed.

The Confessions That Came Too Late They lived together, they argued over an alarm clock, and fifteen years later, one of them is on trial for murder. Anita Knutson was just 18 years old when she was found dead in her bed in Minot, North Dakota. It was June 3, 2007, and the discovery shocked the quiet college town. Anita, a student at Minot State University, had been stabbed twice in the chest. Her apartment showed no signs of forced entry. No valuables were taken. Just a young woman, murdered in her own home—and no one to answer for it. The case went cold fast. With limited evidence and no arrests, it sat dormant for nearly 15 years, until March 2022. That's when the investigation took a sharp turn, thanks in part to the Oxygen TV show Cold Justice. The show had rolled into town looking for answers—and apparently helped point investigators back to someone who'd been close all along: Anita's roommate, Nichole Rice, who was known then as Nichole Thomas. Rice, now 37, was arrested and charged with Anita's murder. She pleaded not guilty. And now, after all these years, her trial is underway. Opening statements began on March 18, 2025. The prosecution told the jury they would lay out clear evidence that Rice killed her roommate in a rage. They argued that the motive was stunningly petty: an argument over an alarm clock that kept going off. According to prosecutors, it was the last straw in a tense living situation, and Rice snapped. But the defense wasn't buying it—and made sure the jury knew it. Rice's attorney, Rick Sand, pushed back hard. He called the theory ridiculous. “Siblings, roommates, they fight. There's issues about an unplugged fish tank, about an alarm clock that wouldn't stop going off,” he told the court. “People like Nichole don't kill their roommates over that kind of stuff. They don't put knives through their sternums.” Sand's strategy was clear: challenge the evidence, point out the lack of it, and call into question the motives of everyone involved—including the Cold Justice team. He suggested the case only reignited because TV cameras came to town, and that investigators were pressured into making an arrest that didn't hold up. But what's turned heads in this trial isn't just the forensic evidence—it's the confessions. Two different people have now taken the stand to say that Nichole Rice told them, years ago, that she killed Anita. First, Kristina Holler. She was a friend of Rice's who testified on Friday, March 21. According to Holler, Rice confessed during a conversation years ago, saying she and Anita had fought and that she stabbed her. Holler said it was over—you guessed it—an alarm clock. She told police back then, she said. Then came William May. He dated Rice briefly and testified that she made a drunken confession at a party in 2008. They were playing video games, sitting on the couch, and someone brought up Anita's murder. According to May, Rice casually said, “I did it. I killed Anita.” He testified that Rice later claimed she didn't remember saying it. May said he called police the next day to report what she'd said. But that's where the story gets murky. Sand pointed out that there are no records of that call. None. And May didn't speak with police again—at least, not until 2022, after Rice was arrested. That gap in time is a big problem for the defense. But so is the lack of solid forensic evidence. On Thursday, forensic scientist Amy Gebhardt testified about the knife believed to be the murder weapon. DNA was found on it—more than three contributors, actually. And because of that, it's impossible to determine exactly whose DNA is on the blade. So while there's DNA, it's inconclusive. There's no direct physical evidence tying Rice to the crime scene. Just the roommate tension, the alarm clock, and two people who say she confessed. The final witness of the week, Michelle Moore, was a classmate of both women. She testified that Anita and Nichole argued sometimes. But when asked directly if she believed Rice was capable of murder? She said no. So now, we've got a trial hanging in the balance. A case frozen in time, now thawed by the heat of confessions and cold-case cameras. Whether the jury believes those late revelations—or sees them as unreliable memories from long-ago parties—will decide the outcome of a case that's haunted Minot for almost two decades. #AnitaKnutson #NicholeRiceTrial #ColdJusticeEffect #TrueCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?
