Mark Koernke hosted an evening broadcast on May 6, 2009, featuring guest Bruce (a trapping and survival expert) discussing his new book 'Buckshot's Complete Survival Trapping Guide,' which covers snare construction, trap deployment, and field survival techniques. The conversation emphasized preparedness, self-sufficiency, and using snares as quiet, ammunition-conserving tools for food procurement in survival scenarios. Koernke also discussed local environmental issues, specifically criticizing eco-activists for removing a dam from Mill Creek in Dexter, Michigan, which he argued destroyed the ecosystem rather than protecting it. The show included calls for donations to cover station costs and promoted Bruce's documentary 'Undo Burden: The Real Cost Living with Wolves,' available on Amazon and Netflix.

Mark Koernke discussed the 2008 presidential election, criticizing both major candidates and their backgrounds. He spent considerable time explaining U.S. currency history, specifically the difference between Federal Reserve notes, silver certificates, and Kennedy-era United States notes, arguing that Kennedy was assassinated because he attempted to eliminate the Federal Reserve and return to constitutional money. Koernke also addressed energy policy, hydroelectric power generation, and criticized environmental activists as tools of big business, arguing that dams provide clean, abundant power that is deliberately underutilized. He challenged listeners to visit local hydroelectric facilities to verify power output claims.
