Description

Speech has consequences when Idaho responds to the Kirk assassination aftermath. This week's episode examines how Idaho institutions responded decisively when employees celebrated political violence. 

Also, we covered the Boise School District's latest legal troubles, new federal logging policies affecting our forests, and the passing of Idaho State University's respected Sasquatch researcher, Dr. Jeff Meldrum.
