The Rant: April 22

It was a crazy morning on The Rant today … from the introduction of our new entertainment news correspondent to our shocking interview with Stephen Hawking. Our guest today was the very upbeat and pleasant Dayna Reggero with Sustainable Sandhills, and Sanford’s own Mary Mason began what we hope will be a weekly segment on e-news from Sanford to Hollywood.
We also talked a little Twitter, Earth Day, local headlines and some news of the weird.
