    Slight delay this week, we're recording Friday night. One of us was in Colorado getting tattoos. "Boy - the air is different." Senator Helene Duhamel is back on the show and we talk about the differences in this year's session vs previous years. Senator Duhamel is working on bringing water to West River. Datacenters week 3. From The Dakota Scout, Auston HOTT GOSS is back on the show to speculate on Lt Gov picks and the legislative movement of week 2. Stupid Bills of the Week? Or Stupid Bills of the Week! Who has and hasn't passed the hunter safety course? Water towers and stoplights.

  • 102. Transparently Transparent

    01:00:13||Season 6, Ep. 102
    Last show before the Session! If you've got hot takes, get em out now. Joined by the SD Dems' Shane Merrill and Dan Ahlers along with GOP Assistant Majority Leader Marty Overweg from D21. We're transparently talking about government transparency. Stupid (or not) bills being proposed. South Dakota journalism, SDPB, and the media landscape. Who wants a data center? SD burger and bar chat. Welcome to Murdo(c), South Dakota. @SMerrill92 @Ahlers_Dan @MartyOverweg @JakeSchoenbeck @murdocj @DakotaTownHall
  • 101. The Webster Martini

    51:35||Season 6, Ep. 101
    Happy 2025! We recap the rest of the biggest political stories of 2024 and tiptoe into the great expanse that is the 2025 legislative session. State GOP leadership race, cool takes, hot takes, and what to look forward to in Pierre. Lastly, to be fair, I don't think anybody said the word 'chicken.' @jakeschoenbeck @sodakcampaigns @dakotatownhall.
