Back again! This week on the show, we trade the campaign trail for Main Street Sturgis as legendary moto journalist Marilyn Stemp joins us alongside Dakota Scout co-founder Joe Sneve to unpack the 86-year history of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. We get into how a small motorcycle race grew into one of America's biggest events, the evolution from racing to concerts and camping, the Buffalo Chip's rise, why Sturgis remains unlike any other rally in the country, and the massive economic impact that stretches far beyond the Black Hills.
Plus, we talk about the future of motorcycling, why getting kids on two wheels matters, and the museum's efforts to preserve rally history, including this year's Pearl's Jam celebration honoring women who helped shape the sport. And of course, we close the show with a return to politics as Joe Sneve breaks down Julian Beaudion's surprise exit from the congressional race, new details about Dusty Johnson's behind-the-scenes role in the GOP runoff, and a few thoughts on Governor Noem's new statue.
