We’re chatting about the local stories that caught our eye this week. First up, Host Emma Arnold asks Boise State Public Radio’s George Prentice how Christian nationalism is showing up at the statehouse and in Idaho life. Plus, George tells us what it will take for Boise to get Amtrak train service, and why the City of Boise needs your train stories. And Lead Producer Frankie Barnhill has an update on a Central Bench assisted living facility that could soon be turned into an apartment building. What will happen to the 93 elderly residents who live there?
And as a bonus: George tests our movie trivia knowledge ahead of his movie night event in Sun Valley this Sunday!
