From Steve & Joe: Dr. Bruce Dahlman has moved on, at least in terms of his career. After his dismissal from North Shore Health, the hospital in Grand Marais, Dr. Dahlman is now working in healthcare in International Falls. Dahlman told Steve Fernlund from the Shore Thing Podcast, in an interview for the North Shore Journal, that he would like to continue working in healthcare in Grand Marais, if possible.

Meanwhile, a petition was started by Chuck Heller and the Concerned Citizens for Cook County Healthcare to bring "justice for Dr. Dahlman and all employees at North Shore Health."

In this episode of the podcast, Steve and Joe discuss the latest on Dr. Dahlman. Other topics discussed in the "traveling episode" include a stalled discussion with the superintendent at ISD 166 focused on locker room policy at the local school district and the passing of Nex Benedict, a nonbinary student in Oklahoma. Steve and Joe also talk about upcoming elections, including at Arrowhead Electric Cooperative and the District 3A seat in the Minnesota House of Representatives.
