Ted has a mystery guest today!

Don't be intimidated. Behind that stern face, and pointing finger is actually a humble guy.

Yes, he loves America.

But he also loves apple pie and ice cream.

And, he loves to play his Bango and sing.

And he has a story to tell. Hopefully we will listen.

Like a pin ball, Mark and Ted bounce from issue to issue.

Some issues impact North Idaho...some do not.

All offer deep insight. Well, not all.

Some topics include:

The helicopter that almost landed on Mark.

Mark dispels rumors that he got married many times this summer.

The need for local officials to more aggressively address the foreign truckers in our area.

Why Moyie Springs is trying to annex Mark's neighborhood. (Ted almost fell asleep on that one)

How schools are improving in the area, making Mark consider returning to school.

Mark shares his love for Taylor Swift, and Ted senses some jealousy issues.

Foster, Mark's faithful canine companion, goes under the knife and gets a facelift. But Mark was unable to get a 2 for 1 special for himself.

Afterwards Ted reflects on his runaway horses and Jesus' thoughts on friendship.

All this and so much more.

Steve and his family share a passion for helping others.

God has led them on this mission, literally.

It's a mission, and a business, that helps provide a life requiring need for everyone.
