Back again! Democratic gubernatorial candidate Dan Ahlers hits the campaign trail and joins Jake and Murdoc to make his case for shaking up 50 years of one-party control in Pierre. Ahlers talks running mate Steve McCleerey, childcare assistance, affordability, young voters, his pitch for political balance and the attacks already coming his way. Plus, he fires back at the “Biden-endorsed” label, talks crossing political lines to show up at Citizens for Liberty, and reveals the campaign trail’s most important metric: who has the best burger.
Then historian Jon Lauck joins the show to talk The Missouri: America’s Longest River and his new role leading Augustana’s Center for Western Studies. We get into the forgotten history, outlaws and wild stories hiding along the Missouri before Jake and Murdoc close things out with the fallout from Julian Beaudion’s exit, his accusations against the South Dakota Democratic Party, the push for more airport funding and Logan Manhart’s latest move out of South Dakota.
