42:55

In today's episode, Deputy Communications Director Lindsey Hanlon is joined by her good friend Richard Ford Burley. Richard originally hails from Canada and currently lives in New Hampshire, making him the perfect test subject for today's topic: testing how outsiders react to Wyoming politics! We Wyomingites develop something similar to Stockholm Syndrome, where we stop thinking that there is anything strange about just how unusual Wyoming politics can be. With a bit of outside perspective and a lot of laughter, we can see the oddities in our system. Support the show…

Help and Healthcare 24:02

24:02

Today on the Red State Blues: Even as we celebrate all of the good that the American Rescue Plan will do for our state, we wait with anxious anticipation to learn the fate of HB 162, which will determine the future of Medicaid expansion in Wyoming. Medicaid expansion is a necessary move for the good of 25,000 Wyoming residents, and one that the Republican legislature has been resisting for a decade. Today we will hear from one Wyomingite, Elizabeth Hiatt of Laramie, who knows better than most how important Medicaid is when you can access it, and how devastating it is when you cannot. She also knows how important the ARP’s financial assistance is for the working families of Wyoming, who are often only one small catastrophe away from poverty. Support the show…

Today, on The Red State Blues, we have our first of many episodes looking at down ballot offices. Some of the most vital decisions that we make as voters happen further down the ballot than a lot of people pay attention to-- school boards, county commissioners, city council members, college trustee boards, mayors, and special district boards all have a direct effect on our day-to-day life. We’ll be talking to people who currently hold these positions or have held them in the past, about what drove them to run, what their duties are like, and why these down ballot roles are so important.
