(Airdate: June 12, 2026) GAS! This week on County Connections, Commissioner Heidi Eisenhour and Jim Burke talk about an urgent issue that was discussed in a tabletop exercise this week where members on EJFR, Sheriffs Dept. PT police, County DEM, PUD, and others including Heidi worked on the problem of rising fuel costs and dwindling supplies that are having a negative effect on all these departments and should be of concern to all county residents. As the Strait of Hormuz remains closed – and even if it reopens to shipping tomorrow – the ripple effect of a 20% reduction in crude oil and reductions of other resources could be felt everywhere for months to come. Also, All-County Preparedness Day in Jefferson County takes place on Saturday, June 27, 2026. This free, family-friendly event is held at Finnriver Farm & Cidery in Chimacum, WA from 10am to 4pm.
(Airdate: June 11, 2026) Please join Nature Now this week for an encore presentation of one of our favorite shows from years ago, recorded back in July 2021. Host Debaran Kelso speaks with Dr. Geoff Hammerson about the woodpeckers of the Olympic Peninsula, along with reviewing several other current natural history events. This is part 1 of a two-part program.
(Airdate: June 10, 2026) This is part 3.
