UM’s creative media team are also national champs. 👏🏼

For realz. 👏🏼

This is a powerhouse of UM talent — most are alumni and they’re as hard-working as they are creative. Best job in the state working w/ these folks! #GoGriz

Is Malfunction Junction still known/used Missoula vernacular?

Had the best time interviewing Lyle. He talked about the woven fabric between basketball, Indian ceremony, cultural resiliency & higher ed in Montana. The Omeasoo family is deeply rooted University of Montana, and the institution is better because of that.

You can't grow local #journalism w/o growing local journalists -- and that's why I'm excited again about Lee Enterprises commitment to a summer internship program. We have seven paid, 10-week spots coming up in the West.

Phone got stuck on my 11 year-old’s playlist this morning for the drive into work. Not upset: Bye, Bye, Bye; I Want it That Way, & the honorable Brit Brit. Gen Alpha gets it.

What’s the impact of a place like University of Montana? Think about that as you consider supporting #TheBigGive. Folks forget that public education requires the same support & stewardship of just about anything that matters for the health & wealth of communities. umt.scalefunder.com/gday/giving-da…

A fun thing about kids is that they really jazz up your cleaning supplies. I mean, has Clorox ever looked better? Gorg.

The kind of ads I'm getting served up from Amazon as of late. Guess things are going as planned post-pandemic and 40, I do declare.

I completely fan-grilled (accosted?) the talented Austin Amestoy this morning. He’s a Montana Public Radio morning tradition in our house and it’s like I know him! So kind, warm and friendly. Big fan!

Campus is looking fresh! Big congrats to all of the University of Montana grads this weekend! #GoGriz

No one is more grateful to educators than a parent volunteer on a field trip to a working farm, 3 weeks before school is out. I was in charge of 4 kids for like 1.5 hours. Lost a kid (briefly), one kid ate a dead bee, another found a rusty scythe. How do teachers DO IT.

Gonna be a little wild & suggest that Missoula has a legit billboard scene (culture, even?). Like, some of them are cool and not dumb.

Grizzlies, I hope you all are safe. Power outage University of Montana as we work to restore operations & cleanup campus. Employees: please plan to work remotely today if possible. The storm impacted the UM family in significant ways, please prioritize your needs as we recover together.

Today Missoula’s authentic spirit was on full display: neighbors, covered in sap, sweat and needles—helping one another. I saw it everywhere. Against a backdrop of chainsaws and generators. And that, my friends, is stronger than any wind. #Missoulasap

It’s the Public Enemy for me. This is incredible!

The best ski shop in Missoula is Gull Ski. Amazing people, service, knowledge & overall experience. Committed to keeping skiing affordable for families. Someone actually helps you within seconds of walking in. Always got love for Bob Wards…But does, like, anyone work there? 😬
