Austin Goss from The Dakota Scout is back to prognosticate about leadership, Dusty's petition signing, and a hint about upcoming heat. Trump is for Cannbis. ISO - Victory Gala speaker. Tweets about babies. @AustinGossSD @JakeShoenbeck @DakotaTownHall

Ostriches - they're just big chickens. Fan Favorite from D15, Rep Linda Duba is back on the show. She was at the DNC and tells us what it was like to attend a national convention. DNC v RNC. Midwestern Dems vs Dems. Teapot Dome Summer for South Dakota as the investigations continue. ISO - Well Being Champ. @sdduba @JakeShoenbeck @DakotaTownHall

Geographically, we are well represented by a great bull session, as we have D1 Senator Michael Rohl and SD Chamber Pres David Owen. The history of IMs, and SD's unique citizen ability to ballot and the cost of an IM. How many Senate races don't have an opponent in November? School Prayer says hello. We need a new IT dude. GOED is senate-confirmable, FYI.

Nathan Sanderson from the South Dakota Retailer's Association comes on the show to discuss IM 28. Nathan hangs around for a rundown of the other ballot issues from a Retailer's perspective. Who wants to run a county republican group? D20 musical chairs, and things the elections in 2026 could be about. As always - burger chats. @JakeShoenbeck @DakotaTownHall @DocSandersonSD

A special Dakota Town Hall with our legal friends from the East. A co-episode with Joe Sneve and Jonathon Ellis from The Dakota Scout. It's Dakota Scouting Town Hall 3. (At the time of editing I think it was 3) @TheDakotaScout @DakotaScoutJoe @DakotaScoutJon @JakeShoenbeck @Murdocj @DakotaTownHall
