On this episode of the ONR, we explore the evolution and complications of campaign finance since Citizens United was ruled constitutional, deeming companies as people. As homelessness continues to not just plague the world over, some officials are looking to Tulsa and a program they started to end homelessness for solutions. Drones may be shifting their flight patterns from the battlefield to the backyard, as agencies look at the potential to do everything from fight fires to crime with these unmanned aerial drones. Plus, Okie entrepreneurs, State Capitol artwork, and the best ghost town you never heard of, on this ONR.

There are no shortage of water issues in Oklahoma, from droughts to usage rights and water rationing. But this isn't a new problem; water has been both a necessity and an issue the world over. One group in particular has dedicated itself to helping countries with water shortages and the issues that crop up in its wake: Map International. We spoke with Dr. Ravi Jayakaran, Vice President of Global Programs, about the group and their work.

On this ONR, we explore the payday loan stores that Oklahomans are using in droves--as much as twice the national average. Then, as bodies of water dry up and a key aquifer in southeastern Oklahoma is depleted, residents are left wondering if local mining operations are to blame. In the eastern wing of the state, three entities--a university, a hospital, and a high school--are banding together to help end the shortage of rural doctors. Medicine isn't the only concern of rural parts of the state. We speak with Mike Spradling, President of the Oklahoma Farm Bureau, about the Farm Bill languishing in Congress, and what that means for local farmers. Plus, the Great State Fair, voters speak their mind, and painting up the ice, on this ONR.
