[♪ THEME MUSIC ♪] >>> COMING UP IN THE NEXT HOUR OF LOCAL NEWS ON ARIZONA PBS, ON "ARIZONA HORIZON," WE'LL SPEAK WITH STATE SENATOR PAUL BOYER WHO HAS BEEN MAKING HEADLINES FOR BREAKING WITH HIS FELLOW REPUBLICANS ON A NUMBER OF ISSUES.

AND HOW THE POWER CONCERNS IN TEXAS ARE IMPACTING ARIZONA.

AND ON BREAK IT DOWN, THE GROWING LACK OF PUBLIC TRUST IN SCIENCE AMID A GLOBAL HEALTH PANDEMIC.

ALL OF THIS AND MORE AHEAD ON THE NEXT HOUR OF ARIZONA PBS.

>>> GOOD EVENING, AND WELCOME TO "ARIZONA HORIZON."

I'M TED SIMONS.

THE STATE REPORTING ANOTHER DAY OF FEWER NEW CASES OF COVID-19, AND DISTURBINGLY HIGH NUMBERS OF COVID-RELATED FATALITIES.

OVER 1100 NEW CASES ADDED TODAY.

THAT IS ENCOURAGING, BUT THE DEATH TOLL OVER THE PAST WEEK IS STILL THIRD HIGHEST AMONG STATES WITH ANOTHER 213 RECORDED TODAY.

TOP U.S. HEALTH OFFICIALS ARE WARNING THAT CORONAVIRUS VARIANTS COULD LEAD TO ANOTHER RAPID RISE IN COVID CASES.

THE U.K.

VARIANT COULD BECOME THE DOMINANT STRAIN IN THE U.S.

IN THE NEXT MONTH.

AS FOR VACCINATIONS A LITTLE OVER 5% OF ARIZONANS HAVE NOW BEEN VACCINATED.

OVERHAUL OF COUNTY RESIDENTS OVER THE AGE OF 75 HAVE RECEIVED ONE OR MORE DOSES OF THE VACCINE.

NATIONAL NEWS, IT IS STILL BRUTALLY COLD IN TEXAS, AND HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF RESIDENTS ARE STILL WITHOUT POWER, THOUGH THAT IS AN IMPROVEMENT.

A MAJOR CONCERN NOW IS DRINKING WATER WITH BROKEN PIPES AND DAMAGE TO TREATMENT PLANTS, IT IS A REAL MESS.

AND THE MAYOR OF AUSTIN IS NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT.

>> WE STARTED OUT WITH COVID, AND THEN SNOW AND ICE FOR A SUSTAINED TIME, NO ONE HERE IS USED TO THAT, AND THEN POWER OUTAGES, AND NOW WE'RE ADDING TO THAT WATER ISSUES.

IT IS TOO MUCH TO ASK OF ANYBODY.

PEOPLE ARE ANGRY, CONFUSED, AND FRUSTRATED, AND I AM TOO.

>> INDEED THIS IS THE VIEW FROM SPACE.

TEXAS WITH POWER AND WITHOUT.

A REAL MESS.

>>> THE WHITE HOUSE ANNOUNCED A SWEEPING IMMIGRATION BILL WHICH WOULD CUT THE PATH TO CITIZENSHIP THERE 13 YEARS TO 8 YEARS.

AND IT WOULD EXPAND WORKER VISAS.

THE BILL FACES LONG ODDS IN THE SENATE.

AS THE WHITE HOUSE CONSIDERS A MOVE TO RESTART THE CONVERSATION ON IMMIGRATION REFORM.

>>> THE U.S. LABOR DEPARTMENT SHOWS ANOTHER 861,000 AMERICANS FILED FOR -- INITIAL BENEFITS.

OF NOTE THE EXTENSION OF FEDERAL BENEFITS MEANS THAT SOME FOLKS ARE NOW REAPPLYING, AND THAT IS LIKELY A FACTOR IN THIS LATEST BUMP.

>>> AND NASA'S PERSEVERANCE ROVER MADE A SAFE LANDING ON MARS THIS AFTERNOON.

IT WILL LOOK FOR ANCIENT SIGNS OF LIFE AND BRING ROCK SAMPLES BACK TO EARTH.

THE MISSION CONTAINS TWO CAMERAS DESIGNED BY SCIENTISTS AT ASU.

>> ON SATURDAY, THEY WILL OPEN UP THE CAMERAS UP, AND WE CAN SEE MARS, AND CHECK OUT THE FOCUS AND THE FILTER WHEELS, AND HOPEFULLY WE'LL GET A BUNCH OF PICTURES BACK.

>> NASA CALLED TODAY'S SUCCESSFUL TOUCHDOWN THE MOST DIFFICULT LANDING EVER ATTEMPTED.

>>> STATE SENATOR PAUL BOYER WAS THE ONLY REPUBLICAN TO VOTE NO ON HOLDING THE MARICOPA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS IN CONTEMPT.

WE SPOKE TO BOYER ABOUT ALL OF THIS EARLIER TODAY.

SENATOR PAUL BOYER, THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

YOU SEEM TO BE AT ODDS WITH YOUR REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES IN THE SENATE ON A VARIETY OF ISSUES.

WHAT IS GOING ON THERE?

>> WELL, IF THERE IS AN ISSUE THAT I THINK NEEDS WORK OR IMPROVEMENT, I CAN'T SUPPORT IT, AND VICE VERSA, IF YOU CAN GIVE ME A PERSUASIVE ARGUMENT I'LL SUPPORT IT.

>> LET'S TALK ABOUT THE MARICOPA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THEY THOUGHT THEY HAD THE VOTES, BUT THEY DIDN'T HAVE YOUR VOTE.

WHAT HAPPENED?

>> IN CLOSED CAUCUS, I RAISED THE SAME CONCERNS THE THURSDAY BEFORE THAT I RAISED ON THE FLOOR, SO IT SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN TOO MUCH OF A SURPRISE.

I DID COMMUNICATE IN THE MEETING THAT WE HAD TO TAKE CONTEMPT OFF OF THE TABLE.

FOR ME THAT WAS ENOUGH TO SAY I'M NOT VOTING FOR SR 1005.

I HAD SOMEBODY HERE ON STAFF, HELP ME DRAFT IS STATEMENT OF WHY.

>> OKAY.

BUT THE FACT THAT YOU DID VOTE NO.

WHY?

>> OH, SURE.

I HAVE IT RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF ME.

IT SAYS AFTER THE CANVAS HAS BEEN COMPLETE, THE OFFICER IN CHARGE OF ELECTIONS SHALL DEPOSIT THE BALLOTS IN A SECURE FACILITY.

SO EVEN IF THE BOARD WANTED TO HAND OVER THE BALLOTS, THEY STILL NEED A RULING FROM A JUDGE TO SAY TO HAND THEM OVER.

>> SO, AGAIN, YOU BREAK WITH REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES ON THAT, AND THAT IS AN ISSUE OUTSTANDING.

NOW YOU HAVE A BLOCKING OF A BILL ABOUT REMOVING SOME VOTERS FROM THE EARLY-VOTING LIST.

WHY DID YOU VOTE AGAINST THIS?

>> I NEEDED SOME TIME.

I HAD A FEW QUESTIONS, AND I SINCERELY JUST WANTED TO HEAR FROM THE SPONSOR.

SHE APPROACHED ME TWO MINUTES BEFORE TO SAY, ARE YOU ON MY BILL?

AND I SAID NOT AT THIS POINT.

I WAS LOOKING FOR CLARITY ON WHAT HAPPENS WITH INDEPENDENTS, BECAUSE UNLESS THEY PROACTIVELY ASK FOR A BALLOT, THEY ARE NOT VOTING IN PRIMARIES.

I WASN'T SURE ABOUT MILITARY, BUT I UNDERSTAND NOW THAT THAT'S A SEPARATE ISSUE.

I'M CONCERNED ABOUT COLLEGE STUDENTS AND ALSO CASUAL VOTERS, AND MAYBE THIS CAN BE TALKED THROUGH, BUT I REALLY JUST WANTED THE OPPORTUNITY JUST TO TALK IT THROUGH.

>> HAVE THOSE CONCERNS BEEN MET?

>> WE ARE MEETING LATER TODAY TO TALK ABOUT IT.

>> ALL RIGHT.

SO IN TURN NOW, YOUR BILL REGARDING EXPANDING THE SCHOOL VOUCHER PROGRAM, WHICH PASSED THE SENATE, AND ON THE WAY TO THE HOUSE, AND IT WAS RECALLED BY YOUR REPUBLICAN COLLEAGUES AS WHAT?

AS A MEASURE OF PUNISHMENT TO YOU?

>> I DON'T LIKE WHEN MEMBERS OR ANYBODY IMPUTES MOTIVES TO ME WHEN I HAVEN'T GIVEN THEM, SO I'M NOT GOING TO IMPUTE MOTIVES TO THE SENATOR.

YOU WOULD HAVE TO ASK HER WHY SHE DID WHAT SHE DID.

>> BUT IT SOUNDED LIKE THEY WERE SENDING YOU A MESSAGE.

>> IT COULD BE.

AND IF THEY ARE, OF ALL OF THE BILLS TO DO THIS ON, I MEAN, KIDS JUST TRYING TO GET OUT OF THEIR FAILING SCHOOLS THAT ARE PRIMARILY HIGH-POVERTY SCHOOLS, THAT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME.

>> WELL, THEY ARE HARMING THEIR OWN POLICY, BECAUSE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT PASSED AND SOMETHING THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MOST REPUBLICANS, AND TO BRING IT BACK, I'M NOT SURE WHAT IS GOING ON THERE, AND APPARENTLY YOU ARE NOT AS WELL.

I TALKED ABOUT THEM SENDING A MESSAGE TO YOU.

DIDN'T THE VOTERS SEND A MESSAGE ON THIS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO THAT EXPANDING THE SCHOOL VOUCHER PROGRAM IS NOT SOMETHING THE VOTERS WANT.

>> ARIZONA VOTERS WANT TO GIVE HIGH POVERTY MINORITY STUDENTS THE CHOICE TO GO TO THE SCHOOL OF THEIR CHOICE.

AND AGAIN, THIS BILL HAS NEVER BEEN VOTED ON BEFORE, AND THE BLACK PASTORS AND COMMUNITY LEADERS THAT BROUGHT THIS IDEA TO ME, THEY DESPERATELY WANT THIS.

AND THEY SAID WE HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT IF ONLY THERE IS ENOUGH MONEY, THEN THE SCHOOL IS GOING TO IMPROVE.

AND THEY LOOK AT THIS AS THEIR ONLY LIFELINE TO GET THEIR KIDS OUT OF FAILING SCHOOLS.

>> BUT WHY NOT MAKE THEM THE SOUL TARGET AND THE SOUL FOCUS?

WHY ARE FOLKS WHO ARE NOT LOW INCOME -- WHY WOULD THEY HAVE THEIR KIDS GET INTO THIS PROGRAM THROUGH THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF -- AN INCOME CAP, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

>> WHAT I DID WAS I TOOK THE FEDERAL APPROACH, SO IF THERE IS A SCHOOL THAT HAS A HIGH TITLE 1 POPULATION, TYPICALLY THEY WOULD PROVIDE SERVICES FOR EVERY SINGLE KID AT THAT SCHOOL, BUT I'M GOING TO MAKE SURE IT'S SPECIFICALLY ONLY TARGETED AT TITLE 1 STUDENTS.

>> SO TITLE 1 STUDENTS AS OPPOSED TO TITLE 1 SCHOOLS AND DISTRICTS?

>> CORRECT.

>> OKAY.

EVERYTHING WE TALKED ABOUT, IS THIS HOW STUFF IS USUALLY DONE DOWN THERE AT THE CAPITOL?

>> I HAVE NEVER SEEN IT LIKE THIS BEFORE.

I HAVE SEEN IT IN THE HOUSE, BUT IN THE SENATE WE ARE TYPICALLY KNOWN AS THE UPPER CHAMBER, AND WE GET HOME AT 4:00 PM BECAUSE WE'RE NOT ARGUING WITH EACH OTHER, SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON.

I WISH I COULD TELL YOU.

>> WELL, WE APPRECIATE THE TIME, STATE SENATOR PAUL BOYER.

>> THANK YOU.

HAVE A GREAT >>> UP NEXT ON "ARIZONA HORIZON," WE'LL HEAR ABOUT A MURAL PROJECT HONORING BLACK HISTORY MONTH.

>>> THE BLACK HISTORY MONTH MURAL PROJECT FEATURES 28 MURALS ACROSS DOWNTOWN PHOENIX, EACH FEATURING THREE NOTABLE BLACK FIGURES.

"HORIZONTE" HOST JOSE CARDENAS TALKED ABOUT THE PROJECT WITH LOCAL MURALIST TATO CARAVEO.

>> DOCTOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US.

YOU ARE NO STRANGER TO PBS.

YOU WERE FEATURED ON "ART IN THE 28" A WHILE BACK FOR YOUR MURALS.

THIS ONE IS SPECIAL IN THE SENSE THAT IT IS PART OF BLACK HISTORY MONTH, BLACK HISTORY MATTERS, SERIES OF MURALS.

TELL US HOW YOU CAME TO BE INVOLVED.

>> I WAS INVOLVED WHEN [ INAUDIBLE ] REACHED OUT TO ME A FEW MONTHS AGO, ASKING IF I COULD PARTICIPATE AND ROUND UP A FEW ARTISTS TO WORK WITH, AND I IMMEDIATELY AGREED, AND WE FOUND A LOCATION, AND SHE DID THE DESIGN LAYOUT WITH HOW THE MURAL WAS GOING TO LOOK, AND WE PRODUCED THAT FOR HER.

>> AND THE WE IS YOU AND TWO OTHER ARTISTS, AND AS I UNDERSTAND, THE PROJECT IS A SERIES OF THREE IMAGES.

SHE DID A TOTAL OF 28 THROUGHOUT THE VALLEY, AND YOUR THREE WERE HUEY NEWTON, THE CO-FOUNDER OF THE BLACK PANTHER PARTY, AND YOU DID MALCOLM X.

>> YES, THAT IS THE ONE I CHOSE.

>> AND WHY THAT PARTICULAR IMAGE?

DID YOU HAVE A CHOICE AS TO WHICH ONE OF THOSE FIGURES YOU WOULD BE WAITING.

>> ACTUALLY, I DID.

I GOT TO CHOOSE WHICH ONE I WAS ABLE TO PAINT.

I HAVE READ UP ON MALCOLM X AND I KNEW A LOT ABOUT HIM GROWING UP AS A KID.

I GREW UP IN SOUTH PHOENIX, AND MAJORITY AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY, AND IT WAS JUST LIKE -- IT WAS AROUND A LOT, SO I JUST ALWAYS QUESTIONED WHO IS THIS PERSON AS A KID, AND MY YOUNGER TEENS, AND I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH ON HIM JUST READING, AND LEARNED MORE ABOUT WHO HE WAS.

SO THAT WAS JUST AN IMAGE THAT I WANTED TO PAINT ON THE MURAL.

>> YOUR WORK TENDS TO BE NOT POLITICAL, SO TO SPEAK, WITH PERHAPS THE BIGGEST EXCEPTION BEING AN ANTI GUN VIOLENCE MURAL YOU DID LAST YEAR.

WHAT WAS IT ABOUT THIS THAT MADE YOU WANT TO DO THIS MURAL.

>> WELL, ESPECIALLY WITH THE CLIMATE GOING ON RIGHT NOW IN THE COUNTRY AND JUST EVERYWHERE, AND I WANTED TO, YOU KNOW, DO MY PART IN ANY WAY I CAN IN JUST BEING SOMEWHAT OF A VOICE, WHETHER IT'S ART OR WHATEVER.

SO THAT WAS ONE OF THE MAIN -- I REALLY DIDN'T WANT TO GET INVOLVED WITH THAT.

>> AND WHAT DO YOU WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE AWAY FROM IT, WHEN THEY ARE THERE LOOKING AT THIS MURAL WITH THESE THREE GREAT HISTORICAL FIGURES?

>> MAYBE IF THEY DON'T KNOW MUCH, DO A LITTLE READING OF WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE THAT WE PAINTED ON THE WALL.

AND HAS THE PROJECT SAYS, BLACK HISTORY MONTH MURAL PROJECT, THAT WAY THEY CAN UNDERSTAND THE STORIES.

AND MAYBE IT WILL INSPIRE THEM TO GO AND DO SOME READING UP ON, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THOSE CHARACTERS, AND FIND OUT WHO THEY REALLY ARE.

>> I READ AN ARTICLE WHERE IT SAID SHE WAS LOOKING FOR MURALISTS WHO WERE GOOD AT PAINTING PORTRAITS, WHICH YOU CLEARLY ARE.

BUT YOUR PORTRAITS TEND TO BE MORE STYLIZED, I'M REFERRING TO ONES THAT INVOLVE MUSIC, THE ONE ON THE OPERA HOUSE WALL.

THIS IS DIFFERENT FOR YOU.

HOW WOULD YOU COMPARE THE EXPERIENCES?

>> WELL, IT'S -- IT'S DIFFERENT.

I LIKE -- I LIKE HAVING FUN WITH MY PORTRAIT STYLE, DOING THE CARICATURE STYLE, BUT I HAVE ALWAYS DONE CANVAS WORK AND TRADITIONAL PORTRAITS, SO IT WASN'T MUCH DIFFERENT IN ANY WAY TO WORK WITH THAT.

YOU KNOW, IT WAS GREAT.

I ALWAYS LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO PAINT.

SO FOR A NATURAL PORTRAIT, THAT OPPORTUNITY RARELY COMES UP.

THEY USUALLY WANT LIFESTYLE WHEN SOMEONE COMMISSIONS ME TO DO SOMETHING, BUT IT IS ALWAYS GREAT TO JUST GO OUT THERE AND -- PAINT A REALISTIC PORTRAIT, IT WAS CHALLENGING IN ITS WAYS.

I THINK MORE CHALLENGING THING ABOUT IT WAS WITH THE COLORS, YOU KNOW?

IT WAS MORE LIKE GETTING IT ALL CORRECT.

>> YOU DID A GREAT JOB, AND WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL THAT YOU JOINED US, DR. TATO CARAVEO, AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN MORE ABOUT BLACK HISTORY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> I APPRECIATE YOU.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

♪ >>> LYNDSEY FRY IS THE RADIO COLOR COMMENTATOR FOR THE ARIZONA COYOTES.

SHE'S THE FIRST WOMAN TO HOLD THAT POSITION WITH THE COYOTES FRAN.

WE TALKED TO HER ABOUT THE ROLE WITH THE TEAM.

LYNDSEY FRY, GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING US.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THIS NEW GIG NOW, THE RADIO COLOR-COMMENTATOR FOR THE COYOTES.

HOW DID THAT COME ABOUT?

>> YEAH, THANKS FOR HAVING ME.

I WAS APPROACHED KIND OF TOWARDS THE PREVIOUS SUMMER, OUR PREVIOUS COLOR-COMMENTATOR DECIDED HE WANTED TO BE EXCLUSIVELY TV AND MOVE ON, SO THERE WAS A ROLE TO FILL.

SO A COUPLE OF PEOPLE APPROACHED ME AND SAID WOULD I BE INTERESTED, AND IT IS SOMETHING I HAVE NEVER REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT BEFORE.

I HAVE DONE A LOT OF INTERVIEWS AND MEDIA TRAINING AND THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT RADIO COLOR WAS NEVER ON MY LIST, BUT I THOUGHT ABOUT IT, AND LEARNED MORE ABOUT THE POSITION, AND TALKING HOCKEY ABOUT MY FAVORITE TEAM AND WITH BOB, SEEMED LIKE AN OPPORTUNITY I COULDN'T TURN DOWN.

>> I THINK THERE ARE THREE OTHER WOMEN ANALYSTS IN THE NHL RIGHT NOW.

HAVE YOU TALKED TO ANY OF THE OTHERS?

>> I DON'T KNOW ANY OF THE OTHER RADIO ANALYSTS SPECIFICALLY.

BUT I'M REALLY GOOD FRIENDS WITH A LOT OF WOMEN WHO ARE ON THE TV BROADCASTING SIDE, AND WHEN THIS OPPORTUNITY CAME UP, I DEFINITELY REACHED OUT TO THEM.

I HAVE KNOWN THEM FOR A LONG TIME, AND KIND OF SEEN THEIR CAREERS PROGRESS, AND WHEN I ASKED ABOUT IT, AND THEY ARE LIKE, IT'S A NO-BRAINER.

DO IT.

THEY BOTH HAD SIMILAR ADVICE.

AND THEY SAID IT IS NO DIFFERENT THAN BEING AT PRACTICE ON THE ICE, IT IS JUST REPETITION.

>> DO YOU FEEL YOURSELF GETTING BETTER EVERY TIME YOU ARE OUT?

>> YEAH, IT'S SO FUN.

EVERY TIME YOU ARE OUT THERE, YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING DIFFERENT EVERY SINGLE GAME.

AND THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW AND EXCITING AND FUN TO TALK ABOUT.

AND HEATER IS THE MOST WONDERFUL PLAY-BY-PLAY PARTNER I WOULD ASK FOR, AND IT HAS HELPED ME A LOT, AND, YEAH, REPETITION.

ONCE I HAVE SETTLED IN, IT HAS REALLY BEEN SMOOTH SAILING FROM THERE.

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, EVERYBODY STUMBLES OVER THEIR WORDS A BIT, BUT I THINK I'M GETTING BETTER AT SAYING THINGS MORE CLEARLY AND CONCISELY THAT IS SO IMPORTANT WITH THE SPEED OF LIVE SPORTS.

>> OH, YEAH.

I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GUYS DO THAT.

LAST TIME WE TALKED, YOU WERE INVOLVED WITH YOUTH HOCKEY.

ARE YOU STILL INVOLVED IN THAT?

>> YEAH, I CALL THIS MY NIGHT JOB, BUT MY DAY JOB, IS EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN DOING BEFORE.

I'M STILL HEAVILY INVOLVED, SPECIFICALLY ON THE GIRL'S SIDE OF THE GAME.

I OVERSEE ALL OF OUR OTHER FEMALE PROGRAMMING, AND I'M DIRECTOR OF EXTERNAL ENGAGEMENT, AND THAT'S GETTING PEOPLE EXCITED ABOUT HOCKEY, SO I STILL HAVE A LOT OF HATS, AND HAVEN'T TAKEN ANY OF THEM OFF YET.

>> LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS FUND-RAISING YOU HAVE GOT GOING ON HERE.

WHO WAS LAYTIN McCAR DOE?

>> YES, SHE RECENTLY PASSED AWAY FROM CANCER.

SHE BATTLED CANCER FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF, AND BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 2019, THE COYOTES BROUGHT HER OUT FOR OUR HOCKEY FIGHTS CANCER RIGHT.

AND SHE HAS JUST REALLY BEEN A PART OF THE FABRIC OF THIS ORGANIZATION.

AND WE OF COURSE WERE ALL DEVASTATED WHEN SHE PASSED AWAY, AND NOW WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, AND RAISE MONEY IN HONOR OF HER, AND BUILD A SCHOLARSHIP.

THE BIG EVENT IS GOING TO BE CALLED SKATING FOR LATEEN.

I'LL BE ROLLERBLADING 96 MILES AROUND THE VALLEY, AND IF PEOPLE WANT TO DONATE, THEY CAN GO TO ARIZONACOYOTES.COM/SKATINGFOR LATEEN.

>> OKAY, A HISTORY OF SCIENCE MAJOR.

HOW DOES THAT PERSON END UP IN THE NHL?

>> YEAH, HARVARD'S PHILOSOPHY IS ALWAYS MAJOR IN WHAT YOU WANT.

WE'LL TEACH YOU HOW TO LEARN, AND THEN YOU CAN GO ON WITH WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO.

SO I THINK GETTING MY MBA AT ASU, CERTAINLY HELPED GET INTO THE BUSINESS OF HOCKEY, AND I JUST -- I NEVER SAY NO TO OPPORTUNITIES, SO I FIND MY WAY IN THESE DIFFERENT PLACES, AND IT HAS WORKED OUT SO FAR.

>> IT SURE HAS.

CONGRATULATIONS.

LYNDSEY FRY, ARIZONA COYOTES GOOD TO SPEAK WITH YOU AGAIN.

>> YOU TOO.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>>> AND THAT IS IT FOR NOW.

I'M TED SIMONS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US.

YOU HAVE A GREAT EVENING.
