Dakota Town Hall

We're taking next week off, so this week we Whip It Good with the new Majority Whip, D31's Ramdy Deibert. We discuss committee assignments and the division, or maybe lack of, in GOP leadership. D1's Michael Rohl joins the show to discuss the hot topics of the week in South Dakota. BIll Off 2025 gets early heat with Rohl vs TVH. Taft fat vs Teddy fat.

Great weeks for Thune and Noem, as well as the Freedom Caucus end of the SD GOP. D34 Senate Elect Taffy Howard joins the show to discuss the upcoming legislative plans, amd Denise Maher from SD Strong joins to discuss the upcoming event on Dec 13th as well as some healthy Lt Gov speculation. 17 year olds, dude... (allegedly)

47,282 of you aren't very cool. Co-Founder and President of Media1, John Fiksdal joins the show to break down the voter turnout and share some views. Congrats to Tony and HOOOTT Goss for being crowned the Election Calcutta Champs. Schoenbeck pronunciations. Lower turnout than expected in SD. Tight District races. Lt Gov Schoenbeck?! @Fiks, @JakeSchoenbeck, @DakotaTowhHall (Recorded 11-7-24)

It's the Big Show! The largest group of experts to date. We're joined by Show Historian, Rep Tony Venhuizen. D21 Senator Erin Tobin, DWC's Pat Powers, The Dakota Scout's Austin 'HOT' Goss, and SD Searchlight's Seth Tupper. We put numbers to paper and guess the ballot measures and a few district races. Next week we'll pick the winners and losers of the winners and losers. @JakeSchoenbeck, @ErinTobin21, @DakotaTownHall, @Tony_Venhuizen, @SoDakCampaigns, @Murdocj, @AustinGossSD, @SethTupper

Back on the show, the one and only @LeeSchoenbeck is back - We talk about the districts that are down to the wire around the state, and then we get Lee's take on some ballot initiatives and the leadership vote. Is Pennington County the Wuhan Lab of Wingnut? Awkward 40 minutes of music you won't get back. Marked safe from ChemTrails, Thanks Sen Pishke. @JakeSchoenbeck @DakotaTownHall

Back to full strength, and from both sides of the river. Show favorite Lee Strubinger comes on to discuss SDPB's new series and then we head back into the hottest district in the state with D32's Nicole Uhre-Balk. If you don't know where to find the best falafel, SDBML's Matthew Schweich has you covered while we discuss the latest with Yes on 29. Movies from white guys for white guys you can see in Aberdeen. (the answer is yes) Thank you to Tim Johnson for your many years of service. @JakeSchoenbeck @LeeSDPB @NicoleforHouse @SouthDakotaMJ @DakotaTownHall

Down a Shoenbeck - it's Murdoc, Senator Tobin and Asst Leader Rehfeldt. We chat about Term Limits in the first break, and then Erin sticks around to discuss the upcoming election, the different divides of the current GOP, civility needing to come back, and Ref Law 21 @TaylorRehfeldt @ErinTobin21 @DakotaTownHall @Murdocj

Murdoc is back east for the Cinch Playoffs Governor's Cup, so hang on for 8 seconds while we're remote. We continue with Amendment H / Open Primaries with Ezra Hays from No on H. Samantha Chapman from the ACLU is back on the show - we chat about H, Victory Galas, and trying to engage voters. Murdoc and Pat chat about IM 28, IM 29, and Ref 21. @JakeSchoenbeck, @Chappel_Du_Vide @SoDakCampaigns @DakotaTownHall
