The 2017 edition of the Firefly Festival is just around the corner. It returns for its sixth year in just over a month, taking over the Woodlands at Dover International Speedway June 15th to 18th. And again this year, there will be a First State act among the 140 plus acts playing during the 4-day event. The honor this year falls to the Dover based hip-hop group Trio – Matt Howe, Sam Carter and Matt Coston. Recently, they stopped by our studios to chat with contributor Rob Kalesse and perform a couple of their tracks.

Dogfish Head Brewery founder Sam Calagione won a prestigious Beard award Monday night, named the nation’s most outstanding beer, wine or spirits professional.  He finally won the award after being nominated six previous times. About a year ago – Delaware Public Media’s James Dawson sat down with Calagione to discuss craft brewing and his business approach as outlined in his book Off-centered Leadership: The Dogfish Head Guide to Motivation, Collaboration & Smart Growth.  With Calagione winning a Beard award, we thought it’d be worth looking back at that conversation in this week’s Enlighten Me.
