NO ID Episode 12 - Deer Parts
Executive Producers:
Jack Cramer
Kevin Killian
We dust off some priceless Alabama legislative testimony to remind everyone that homebrewing is dangerous, children must be protected, and anything the gubmint hasn't approved is strictly illegal. Back in Idaho, a new poll suggests voters want fewer regulations, lower taxes, and more educational freedom...which the Coeur d'Alene Press somehow interprets as an opportunity to defend the political establishment. Idaho's school choice tax credit opens for business, sending teachers unions into their customary panic, while school administrators plead poverty from atop their six-figure salaries. Meanwhile, Post Falls prepares for a pickleball invasion, the Women's March returns to Boise, and Coeur d'Alene's Art Spirit Gallery closes after years of financial hardship. Plus, hunting regulations, a suspicious box of deer parts, and another master class in why the media shouldn't be trusted to explain things it doesn't understand. The taxpayers want less gubmint, the bureaucrats want more money, and somewhere in Alabama, a bathtub full of moonshine remains a threat to civilization.
