Program Highlights

KNPR's State of Nevada Soldier Documentary, LV Phil 7/4 Spectacular, Hot Dog
On average, 18 veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan commit suicide everyday. That's according to numbers gleaned from the Department of Veterans Affairs. A new documentary looks at this troubling trend, and we talk with two of the men who made the film, which features veterans from Southern Nevada.

Next, maestro David Itkin of the Las Vegas Philharmonic and Josh Husling of the musical group Mosaic join us to discuss their joint July 4th performance at the Springs Preserve.

Then, we talk with competitive food eaters Richard and Carlene LeFevre of Henderson. He's set to compete this weekend at the annual hot dog eating contest at Coney Island.
