On this week's episode with host Davis Hovey, we air a special three part series that is a collaboration between KMXT and Type Investigations and was supported by the Pulitzer Center. This series covers how and why federal funds are being poured into the Kodiak Island spaceport, how local residents feel about that, and how this expansion could impact the future of the spaceport and the community.
Davis Hovey was first drawn to Alaska by the opportunity to work for a radio station in a remote, unique place like Nome. More than 7 years later he has spent most of his career reporting on climate change and research, fisheries, local government, Alaska Native communities and so much more.
