Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, Isayah's Allstars performs inside the Firmin-Garner Performance Studio, details on a festival that celebrates edamame, and Michael Tilley from The City Wire gets us up to date on the week in news.
The city of Mulberry will host its inaugural Edamame Festival from 10am to 5 pm tomorrow at the city park. Bob Livingston is spending some time in Eureka Springs...writing, playing, teaching. He's a founder of the Lost Gonzo Band and has played all around the world.
Ahead on this edition of Ozarks, Spring is officially here, and warmer weather will soon bring with it insects like mayflies and damsel flies out and about. But before those bugs mature, they spend their young lives as nymphs in local waterways. We visit a local creek to see what is swimming and crawling beneath the surface. Plus, a conversation with another one of this year's gubernatorial candidates, Mike Ross. The Democrat has aspirations that stretch beyond this November. And back-handsprings and lateral bars: what it takes to be one of the best gymnastics programs in the country. We spend some time with the Arkansas Razorback Gymbacks, who will host this year's national championship regionals this week.

The new Ozark Mountain Regional Public Water Authority which delivers Bull Shoals Lake water to towns and districts across Boone, Newton, and Searcy Counties is in trouble. As Jacqueline Froelich reports, several towns that signed on to the drinking water pact appear to be stricken by buyer’s remorse. (Correction: Marshall is in Searcy County and Lead Hill is in Boone County. In my report I erroneously reversed the towns’ locations.)Latest Edition of Ozarks at Large
