Episode description

What’s the political landscape in Idaho? Is it really that conservative? Is there a reason the state seems to embrace right-wingers? And what do people think Dems are trying to take from them? These questions and more on the very red state are answered by Democratic Congressional candidate, Kaylee Peterson. She walks us through the state’s media deserts and how that impacts the landscapes, how isolation contributes to fear, and who/what comes into the stoke the flames. We also chat about her campaign, why she’s running, and the need to build party infrastructure in the state.
