Show Notes
Trade the scripted smiles of local news anchors for the unvarnished reality of the Treasure Valley on this episode of Happening in Boise. For March 3, 2026, hosts Mark and Joleen tackle a packed agenda, starting with a look at the offensive "circus" at the Idaho Statehouse and the escalating gas tax war between House Speaker Mike Moyle and our neighbors in Utah. The duo breaks down the controversial hiring of Marcus Myers in the Kuna School District, provides a somber legal update on the horrific Melba attempted murder case, and debates whether the 57-year-old sourdough starter at The Wylder is a culinary masterpiece or just "casually expensive" hype. Whether you're looking for the lowdown on Athletic Club Boise's inaugural soccer season, navigating ACHD's latest Hill Road construction "bulb-outs," or trying to survive Boise's inevitable "False Spring" weather, this episode delivers the essential local news you need to stay connected. Subscribe for a candid look at Idaho politics, real estate, and culture, because if you're trapped in Chinden Boulevard traffic, you might as well have something better to listen to than the sound of your own road rage.
