On this week’s Regional Roundup, we’ll hear how rural communities are particularly impacted by extreme heat. We’ll hear a report from Aspen Ideas: Health on how music can be used for therapy and rehabilitation. Then, we’ll hear about the history of labor organizing done by janitors in Denver that has spread around the country. After that, we visit a school garden in southwest Colorado that continues to teach children even when school is out for the summer. We’ll hear about a songwriters festival that took place recently in Western Colorado, and then we round out the show hearing from author Peter Heller, whose 2012 novel The Dogs Stars has been adapted into a movie that will be released in August.
