KIRO NIGHTS

A Fair Shake

Apr 14, 2017, 5:06 PM | Updated: Aug 14, 2017, 1:51 pm

Every Friday at 9 PM, Jason and I talk to someone with an unusual perspective, job, or life experience that may otherwise be mocked or dismissed, and we give them a fair shake.

That’s the name of the segment — A Fair Shake.

We’ve talked to mermaids, a woman who married herself, a necromancer, a shaman, a vampire, an autistic musician trying to spread positivity through his music, a woman who used LSD to cure depression, a chef who believes the world will one day embrace insect cuisine and someone who literally believes construction noise is killing the citizens of Seattle.

We love talking to people from all walks of life.  And taking them seriously.

Does this describe you? Let’s talk. Contact our producer Jacob at JRummel@bonneville.com.
