This is a non-numbered, out of the ordinary episode of the Olympia Standard. Ken Balsley passed away last week, and I thought it would be okay to share a conversation I had with him on his podcast a few years back.

Speaking of which, here are two posts I wrote last year where Ken and I severely disagreed, which I referenced in the episode. We should be able to rename Priest Point Park if we feel like it.
