Elaine Geisel joins us to discuss the wonders and perils of the monarch butterflies and whether they should be on the endangered species list.

Near the end of the hour, Mike Murphy talks with Ruby Montoya and Jessica Reznicek, Climate Activists who admitted to damaging equipment located on an extraction company operation site in Buena Vista County, Iowa on election night, 2016.  No one knew who damaged the equipment until the two gave a public admission statement.  They clearly said the reason they committed the direct act was in defense of the environment and clean water in Iowa.  In the aftermath of their public statement, the FBI raided the Catholic Workers House in Des Moines, Iowa where the two live.  Mike Murphy speaks with themonly a few days after the FBI raid.
