On today's In the Moment...

This winter was brutal to all kinds of South Dakotans, including four-legged and feathered residents. SDPB's Evan Walton checked in with the state and nonprofit agencies about how they're helping wildlife recover from the snowy season.

Small businesses in the state have already weathered a multiyear pandemic and last year's derechos. Jaime Wood with the U.S. Small Business Association is here to help businesses prepare for whatever spring throws at them.

The Dakota Scout has published several high-interest articles in the past few months. Lori Walsh sat down with Jonathan Ellis, the publication's co-founder, to dive into a few of them.

They discuss the South Dakota Supreme Court's recent ruling on the affidavits related to the child porn possession investigation involving T. Denny Sanford. What's next in this protracted legal battle? Also, the state's GDP took a hit last quarter, but that doesn't signal an economic downturn.

Plus, Ellis tracked down a slippery story in a local urgent care clinic. Did South Dakotans endure more ice slips and falls this winter?

You heard Chuck Suchy's beautiful song "Tell Me Your Heart" on the April episode of "Wish You Were Here." In the Moment played a snippet of the song last week. Today, we bring you full the performance.

Finally, Sanaa Abourezk is a finalist for what she calls the "Oscars" for chefs. She stepped away from the kitchen in Sanaa's Gourmet Mediterranean to discuss laughing, dancing and cooking.
