Ahead on this edition of Weekend Ozarks, the effort to create Nerdies, a project designed to give young people not interested in sports a place to explore other hobbies and passions. We'll also visit a piece of land in Fayetteville that will soon be a teaching farm, letting young students get a hands-on approach to growing and eating healthy foods. Plus Christian Howes, one of the most critically acclaimed jazz musicians performing talks to Robert Ginsburg about Howes's upcoming concert at Walton Arts Center. And what's really happening in our brain when we listen to that music we really like again . . . and again . . .and again. We'll talk briefly to Lisa Margulis about her new book On Repeat: How Music Plays the Mind.
