North Dakota was sweltering during the summer of 1930. The state was in the grip of an oppressive heatwave. Heat and humidity had caused extreme discomfort for several days.

Beach and Grand Forks recorded 99, and Williston reached 98. North Dakotans were getting tired of the heat.

Zephyr Energy PLC (AIM:ZPHR, OTCQB:ZPHRF) CEO Colin Harrington talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's oversubscribed £10.5 million equity raise, strategic acquisition in the Rocky Mountains, and the future development of its Paradox Basin assets. Harrington outlined the rationale for the oversubscribed equity raise, emphasising the alignment with multiple catalysts, including a strong Paradox well result, a significant commitment from a US investor to support Williston drilling, and the acquisition of synergistic assets. He confirmed, “Every single member of the board, every single member of the senior management team has contributed into this raise, to almost $1 million of capital.” The $7.3 million Rocky Mountain acquisition is expected to deliver immediate cash flow and production growth. The assets produce around 400 barrels per day with low decline and are operated by known firms like EOG and Continental. The deal also brings forward 13 new well proposals, which will be funded through a private equity partner. On the Paradox Basin, Harrington said capital from the raise would go toward infrastructure and workovers aimed at bringing the wells into production. He noted potential third-party interest in gas offtake, including cryptocurrency miners and CNG users. A competent person's report (CPR) is underway, and the company is starting partnership discussions to accelerate development. Harrington addressed market rumours regarding asset impairments, clarifying that the anticipated write-down is a non-cash accounting adjustment unrelated to bank debt.

This month, for Memorial Day and Military Appreciation Month, we honor our Native American veterans. Did you know our Native people serve at the highest rate per capita of any group in the U.S.? Yet, Native veterans also face some of the highest suicide rates, often twice the national average. Factors like historical trauma, limited access to culturally relevant care, and the lingering effects of service contribute to this crisis. For younger Native male veterans, the risk is especially high, making culturally rooted, community-based support critical. Programs that reconnect veterans to nature, culture, and tradition are helping restore hope. I sat down with Choctaw veteran Teyler Williston, who continues his family's legacy of service through his work in Native veteran mental health. His story spans generations—from his Choctaw Lighthorseman Grandpa to Teyler's Air Force Firefighting and his role in the Choctaw Honor Guard.

02/11/25: Joel Heitkamp is joined by Mike Reuter, a Sports broadcaster and news anchor for 660 KEYZ in Williston, ND. The North Dakota District 23 Republicans put out a press release condemning the antisemitic behavior of Representative Nico Rios, and expressed support for Jewish people. Joel and Mike talk about the behavior and what Williston thinks of Representative Rios, and Joel shares his personal thoughts on the issue. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In our promotions for this episode of Plain Talk, we had indicated that state Rep. Nico Rios would be joining us. Rios has made some fairly ugly headlines over the past year or so. He derated two law enforcement officers with bigoted and homophobic comments during an arrest for DUI. More recently, with regard to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, he wondered in an X post "if the CIA would help Trump overthrow and kick this Jew out of power in Mexico." He's also introduced a resolution, in the current legislative session in Bismarck, which would have the State of North Dakota "acknowledge the Kingship of Jesus Christ over all the world," something that likely violates the state constitution, the U.S. constitution, and would not be in keeping with what many North Dakotans -- those of the Jewish faith, or Islamic, etc. -- believe to be true. Me and my co-host, Chad Oban, were looking forward to a respectful interview with Rios about these words and actions. Unfortunately, just minutes before the agreed-upon time for the interview, Rios backed out. "Ay dude I'm not going on your boring little show," he told me in a text. "When I initially agreed to come on Sunday afternoon I thought it was just to promote my Christ is King Resolution, but you seem to be focusing on my social media. NOT NEWS. Got more important things to do than chat Capitol gossip." We did have a very good interview with state Rep. Mike Nathe, who spoke about his property tax bill (which carries Gov. Kelly Armstrong's plan for reform) as well as legislation he's backing that would require all candidates seeking a political party's nomination to collect signatures to appear on the primary ballot. Currently, candidates endorsed at party conventions do not have to collect signatures. "I'm just glad they got this one out so everyone can see it," he said of his property tax bill, which just emerged from the policy committee with a "do-pass" recommendation and some amendments. The committee added the option for local voters to approve a 10-year exemption from the budget caps promoted by Gov. Armstrong. It also lowered the amount of the primary residence tax credit by roughly $100, and added an income tax cut. "If it was my desire that would have been in a separate bill," he said of the income tax portion. Nathe also responded to some of the controversy around Rep. Rios. "I don't agree with it," he said of Rios's words and actions. "My colleagues don't agree with it." Asked if he felt his party should remove Rios from the caucus, and strip him of committee assignments, Nathe deferred to House Majority Leader Mike Lefor, though he did have this message for the people who elected Rios: "The people of Williston have got to stand up."

On April 11, 1981, 15-year-old Barbara Cotton vanished without a trace from Williston, North Dakota. Her mother, Louise, immediately began contacting Barbara's friends, hoping to learn to find her. When no one had seen her, Louise reported her daughter missing to the Williston Police Department and passed along any tips she received. However, as the weeks and months passed, there was no sign of Barbara, and the case went cold. To those closest to her, it seemed as though little was being done to locate her, fueling their suspicions that the investigation was stagnant. The prevailing assumption at the time was that Barbara may have run away, a common conclusion for missing teens in that era.However, decades later, the case remains unsolved, and there is now a renewed push to uncover the truth behind Barbara Cotton's disappearance. Many questions remain unanswered, and the search for answers continues.If you have any information about Barbara Cotton's disappearance, please contact the Williston Police Department at 701-577-1212.You can follow Barb's story on social media at Find Barb Cotton.

In this episode of The Halloween Podcast, we're uncovering ten of North Dakota's most haunted locations. From eerie forts to mysterious ghost towns, the Peace Garden State has more than its fair share of ghostly legends. So, grab a seat, turn off the lights, and join me as we explore the haunted side of North Dakota. Featured Locations: Fort Abraham Lincoln 4480 Fort Lincoln Rd, Mandan, ND 58554 In addition to the spirits of soldiers, Fort Abraham Lincoln is said to be haunted by Native American spirits who once inhabited the area. Some visitors have reported seeing the ghostly figures of horses galloping across the plains, perhaps tied to the battles that once raged here. The fort's cemetery is also known for its eerie atmosphere, with strange lights often spotted at night. North Dakota State Capitol 600 E Boulevard Ave, Bismarck, ND 58505 The Capitol building is also rumored to be haunted by a former governor who roams the halls, particularly near the legislative chambers. During nighttime security rounds, guards have reported hearing the faint sound of an old-fashioned typewriter in empty offices, as well as the smell of cigar smoke lingering in the air, despite a strict no-smoking policy. Children's Museum at Yunker Farm 1201 28th Ave N, Fargo, ND 58102 In addition to the sounds of children's laughter, some visitors have claimed to see the image of a young boy peering out from the windows. The basement, which is not open to the public, is rumored to have its own paranormal activity, with reports of cold drafts and unexplained sounds, especially near the old coal room. White Lady Lane Near Walhalla, ND 58282 Locals have reported that vehicles sometimes experience strange malfunctions on White Lady Lane, with headlights flickering and engines stalling near the site of the accident. There are also tales of a ghostly dog that appears alongside the White Lady, as if to protect her on her eternal vigil. San Haven Sanatorium San Haven Rd, Dunseith, ND 58329 San Haven is also known for its eerie abandoned tunnels, which were once used to transport patients. These tunnels are said to be especially haunted, with visitors reporting disembodied voices and shadowy figures lurking in the dark. Paranormal investigators have captured EVPs of voices calling for help, as well as sightings of orbs and mist. Liberty Memorial Building 604 E Boulevard Ave, Bismarck, ND 58505 In addition to the ghostly librarian, some visitors have reported seeing an apparition of a man in military uniform near the building's war memorial section, perhaps a tribute to the fallen soldiers memorialized within. There are also reports of cold spots in the stairwells, believed to be areas where spirits linger. Rough Riders Hotel 301 3rd Ave, Medora, ND 58645 The ghost of a young woman in a 19th-century dress has also been seen wandering the upper floors of the hotel, believed to be a former guest who never left. The hotel's restaurant has experienced strange happenings, with silverware moving on its own and the lights flickering during quiet hours. Harvey Public Library 119 10th St E, Harvey, ND 58341 In addition to Sophie's spirit, some visitors claim to have seen the shadow of a man lurking near the basement stairs. Locals believe this could be Sophie's husband, forever tormented by the act he committed, bound to the library where her spirit resides. Old Armory 320 1st Ave E, Williston, ND 58801 The Old Armory is also known for the occasional sighting of a spectral bugler, who is heard but never seen, playing taps late at night. Visitors have also reported feeling a sudden cold breeze in the gymnasium, accompanied by the faint scent of gunpowder, believed to be residual energy from training exercises. Leonard Mausoleum Leonard Cemetery, County Rd 15, Leonard, ND 58052 Visitors to the Leonard Mausoleum have also reported seeing the figure of a tall man standing guard near the entrance, believed to be a former caretaker. This shadowy figure is said to follow visitors, disappearing into the mist if they attempt to approach the mausoleum at night.
